"Message From A Sidewalk" was part of Urbano Project's artist residency. The project was a collaboration with local youth. Through the familiar street game of hopscotch, the project invited participants to reconsider the role of sidewalks and their potential as spaces for play, interaction, and community engagement.

With increasing regulations and restrictions shaping how people can occupy and interact within these spaces. This raises questions about accessibility, ownership, and the democracy of public space in American cities. Using the participatory design of a hopscotch game as a point of departure, the project explored the idea of democracy through collective creativity and shared decision-making. It examined how art can serve as a tool for raising awareness, fostering inclusivity, and reclaiming public space as a place where diverse voices can be heard.
