When Pigs Fly

Saturday, October 17 - 2:30PM to 3:15PM

In this earthly life, with its blood, sweat, and toil, most find little comfort. Their hope is in the next life, with its promise of heavenly mansions nestled among lush pastures along streets paved with gold. They long for a future homestead where there will be no sorrow, pain, hunger, or burdens. My current project, When Pigs Fly, examines the realities, inequalities, and long-term effects of living near, or below, the U.S. Federal Poverty Guidelines. An existence where families—including my own—long for a better future.
