Invisible Barriers: A Call for Awareness.
Physical and emotional barriers often go unnoticed in everyday life. In response to COVID-19, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the struggle for survival of millions of refugees, I feel compelled to raise awareness for those whose voices are not heard. The piece of wine glass in this work symbolises my privileged position. When it clinks, it reminds me to support those less fortunate. While I cannot end inequality alone, I can make conscious choices—like supporting charities—to contribute to change.
