Crossover groups J, I, and B created this digital patchwork quilt using a variety of mediums. The theme of this quilt is “what does Power in Place represent to you?” Each square is unique, illustrating how Power in Place has various meanings to different people. The idea came from how how patchwork quilts are made up of many separate parts, yet they come together as one unified whole.

Squares created by Olivia Hom, Josie Morgan, Julia Boccabella, Siona Ahuja, Sophia Walker, Heidi Suh, Aryana Khalilzadeh, Julia Price, Ava Viohl, Fiona Hinds, and Olivia Geppel.
