My installation is finally complete. I decided to go fairly low-fi, meaning keeping it really simple and accessible. I used chalk board paint to define my space and also offset the white covers of my books. It became a great canvas to write with chalk:
“How can Eating Design make an impact your life? Think of it as a framework: a new way to communicate something, to incite interaction amongst people, or personally reflect. It is as versatile as you.”
That is one of my favorite summations of Eating Design.

I also have the blog as part of the exhibit. It has been such an incredible and important aspect to my work which initially surprised me! It started out as a virtual sketchbook really, a place where I could amass my projects, thoughts, ideas, and research. But I am so happy that it has become so much more than that for me. I have become part of a community that I otherwise would have never found, which I am so grateful for. The blogging community has been one of the most supportive and energizing communities I have ever been a part of and am eternally thankful .

Off to practice for my Oral Defense happening on Monday. Have a great weekend!
