New Home
A few years ago, I moved to Halifax after having had a difficult year. When I arrived, I found myself walking through the North End. I was immediately comforted by the colourful and welcoming neighbourhood. I remember this feeling of finally having found home. These pieces are a representation of the inner warmth and acceptance I felt as I walked the welcoming streets, and the joy I still feel today as I say hello to the many North End kitties in all the windows
