Not a lot of people showed up, given the reasons mentioned above, but enough did that it felt like a packed house. I spoke briefly to a gentleman that came in and photographed our work, one Rick Vesny, who enjoyed the show a lot and mentioned that he would be posting the photographs he took on his own website.
Also, I spoke to a Gideon Swift - an art dealer in the Dallas area who was pretty taken with a few of the pieces in the show. Arthur Pena showed up briefly, as well, and though I didn't get a chance to speak with him, I did notice him lingering over my pieces for a long time, which was pretty cool. I've attached a few of the documentation photos from the show (also Kate Denton showed up and helped us set out all the refreshments and things, so a massive, massive shoutout/thank you to her for coming out to support us!), as well as a brief video I made for a friend who unfortunately could not make it.
Overall, this was a fantastic experience. I absolutely loved the opportunity, and both Evita and Darius were wonderful to work with throughout this entire semester!
