A yarn bomb drapes the Millennium Gate Sculpture situated before the Santa Barbara County Arts Administration building in Santa Barbara, California. The sculpture created by artist Rich Peterson is an oval, egg shape, symbolizing a portal to a new era or millennium.

The spider web-like drape was knitted locally by a group of unidentified women in visual protest of county administration.

Scan 20 Scan 14Ephemera from the Las Fronteras: Sueños, Commadres y Manos or The Borders: Dreams, Godmothers and Hands exhibit I curated for the Santa Barbara County Arts Commission, at a young age.

The glyphs beside the text are from Mayan culture, the land my father was born.
