Her work explores the interconnectedness of individuals and community through the dual lens of compassion and empathy.

Alice's mural and installation work has been constructed in galleries and public spaces as part of site-specific arts education and community development projects. Her work often engages local neighborhoods and reflects positive visual responses to social issues.
