The title of the exhibition is called “Intersection: World Arts, Local Lives.” This exhibition opened on September 30, 2006. Some of the pieces displayed on this exhibition were not new, since Professor Brown had already gone over them. The exhibition contained a divination board, vessels, male and female figures, masks, headdresses, staffs, textiles, among others things. The art pieces were from different parts of the world.

Edgar Degas’ Little Dancer Aged Fourteen is a symbol for all little girls with dreams bigger than themselves. The Little Dancer is a statue of a young girl made from all natural materials, created by the artist Edgar Degas. The Little Dancer has a small head with small features; Degas was not trying to emphasize her face, but her minute features display an expression of hope, almost jovial in a way. The air of her expression conveys the quiet discipline of a dancer and therefore her passion and love for ballet. The legs of the dancer are long compared to her torso, turned out, as a dancers always are. This turnout becomes natural after working strenuously every single day, trying to perfect the dancer’s art; standing parallel feels abnormal.

The first thing that a visitor notices upon visiting the Sensing Chicago gallery is the tactile experience. Everything begs to be touched. The exhibits are oriented low to the ground so as to be accessible to the eight- to nine-year-old target audience, and there are no guardrails of any kind to inhibit accessibility. The labels, the floor, and the exhibits themselves are painted in bold, exciting colors and the walls are covered with pictures of smiling children and iconic sights of Chicago. It is hard to imagine the space not appealing to the sensibilities of a young child.

The main focus is the lady, her gaze and position is towards the playground as she is in deep thought. The expression in her eyes are full of wonder and appears as if she's asking herself questions. Maybe about her past, current time or her future. Her stance looks relaxed and her emotion is calm, like she is reflecting. You look at the child and compare the differences between both subjects; their clothes, appearance and personalities. You see the change.
