visual art, installation, video works, performance
For tears, I shall sing.
For rejection, I will make a documentary.
For happiness, I like to draw and

For hope, I weave tapestries of imagination.
For people, I gift this world to
you.

The title beckons to us, and poses us a question: what does she mean by a room of one’s own, and what does it mean for a room to get legs? The first part of that question is simple enough to answer: it comes from an essay of the same name, derived from lectures delivered by the writer Virginia Woolf in 1928.
