I showed this piece during my MFA Thesis exhibition at Hunter College and a year later in a show titled "El Ritmo del Mundo" at Flushing Town Hall in Queens.

While on exhibit someone kept stealing the sport jerseys. I ended up having to run 50lb fishing line through all the jerseys to make them secure. The two valuable lessons that I learned from this are, if you think it might happen it will and stock up on materials since you might have to replace pieces that might end up being out of stock in the future. I bought extra amounts of jerseys in that style just in case.
