In short: Lily Yeh, a self-described barefoot artist, travels the globe with nothing but a suitcase of supplies. This video explores her unique method of using collaborative art projects to revitalize neglected urban environments.

The presentation examines how Yeh's mobile art practice works with diverse groups of people to transform 'broken' public areas. By inviting anyone to participate, her projects aim to introduce color, community, and beauty into spaces that are often overlooked or perceived as damaged.
