May Ling Kopecky ’22, MFA was recently featured on Fox 9's newscast for her artwork about life with multiple sclerosis.

Diagnosed with MS when she was 15, Kopecky goes into detail about how her art, which details a lot about her treatment and familiar spaces, helps people understand this invisible disease.

"I try to remind people your symptoms are valid, what you’re experiencing is real," Kopecky explained. "I feel like I’m just finding new ways to talk about things and finding new ways to share my voice and experience."
