You Are Beautiful

This piece sits on a garage door facing Smith Park in Chicago, at the home and studio of Sandro Miller and Claude-Aline Miller. It began as part of a private space, but quickly became something shared with the neighborhood. I added a simple line on the ground: take your photographs, share with the world. People did. Dog walkers stop by every day, friends bring each other, and over time it’s become a quiet ritual. Nothing formal, just a place people return to. More at You Are Beautiful.
