Christopher Kojzar is a Harris Fellow in the art and art history program at the University of Vermont.


“The arts function as a personal response to lived experience. Although I’ve never been directly affected by human trafficking, I think there is a precarious mode of survival to living in the United States for us all. With ‘the corner,’ however, I mean to show that people need refuge in this country for reasons that I as a citizen might never understand from my own position of privilege.”
