About the event: The Chelsea International Fine Art Competition was an exciting opportunity to show new and innovative work while gaining exposure to an extensive international audience. A panel of jurors awarded visual artists from around the world with more than $70,000 in valuable prizes. Ms. Troy submitted sculpture art entitled, “My Father’s Feet” in which she pays homage to her visually impaired father- a major influencer of her work. “Without being able to see her pieces, he explores them through touch. She wants for her viewers to explore every intentionally placed groove and indentation as if they were her father, getting to know the piece for the first time.”- Sabrina Gilbertson
