Piece Description
Sometimes we take incredibly round-a-bout ways to find ourselves. In this case, I try to explore the spiritual side of myself by painting my face to look like an aboriginal, and then everything goes wrong.

Review of One Reason When Visiting Sacred Sites, It Is Important To Remember That You Are Not An Aboriginal But Actually Grew Up In The Suburbs
This is one of those pieces you can really relate to in the beginning...,the quest to find one's self..., but with a hilarious ending!! I also love the use of ambient sound (i.e. rushing water, kids jumping into the water) to really bring this story to life. Great piece!
