Make-Over
Sarada Conaway and Jackie Milad will offer free makeovers to self selected volunteers. Participants will receive a before, in-between and after photograph. Milad’s in-between makeovers will resemble her current series of portrait drawings; awkward, empathetic and humorous. Conaway’s makeovers create an altered appearance, and an unusual social interaction.
