'You Are Not Alone'

Texas State University’s Flex Space Art Gallery will be home to an interactive art piece designed to bring awareness to sexual assault.

“You are Not Alone” is a 3-D project by Texas State Art Education Major Annette Essler. The idea for the art piece came from a 3D project in which Essler was asked to combine two objects with a connective material. She tied together a high heel and Converse high top with a red bed sheet.

“The idea behind it was sexual assault is something that can happen to any type of person,” Essler said. “It can happen to girls wearing high heels or dirty sneakers and it can happen to guys as well.”
