Local artists, Juner and Mark Patnode, share their experiences of using culture as the "universal language" to help build more bridges between the East and the West, China and America.As Mark profoundly states "Wo ai ni zhong guo, wo ai ni mei guo" or translated to "I love you China, I love you America" which helps to show his deep appreciation and love for both countries.With election just three weeks away, it was imperative for us to encourage people to register to vote and get out there to vote in the upcoming elections. Mark stated that he has no political affiliation with any set party, but that he really wishes that America could get away from the divisiveness that is hampering the development of our country. Juner and Mark have a show going on right now at the Norwich Art Cooperative, and everyone is invited to come join and participate.
