mixed media (collage and acrylic); 3 panels, 5×7” each
“Inspired by the book, “Children Just Like Me,” this piece contrasts the book’s spirit of empathy with a society that normalizes children’s deaths as collateral damage. It exposes the dissonance between our professed values and society’s push to desensitize us to senseless war and enemization of the ‘other.’”
