"The wonderful lesson we learn as we read the wishes is that we have a constant as human beings -- which is the need for tenderness, compassion, good health, love, and peace." - Cecilia Paredes
In February 2024 Cecilia Paredes added one more artwork to the exhibition, Not ~ At Home: Cecilia Paredes (October 25, 2023 鈥 June 2, 2024). Wishes in the Air is a collaborative piece that consists of wishes for the future collected from members of our campus community. These are interspersed with wishes that Paredes has collected when producing similar iterations of the piece around the world. Not only does the artwork include the words of our community, but it was made in situ with members of our community.
