Original artwork description:

This little girl has to live in a refugee reception camp.

She dreams of having a life of freedom.

Kids inspire me. Their ability to transcend any given rotten situation is astounding. Playing tag in the ruins of a bombed Syrian city. Playing football in the most miserable neighborhoods. They are always looking for the light. They will save the future that our generations have really messed up, not even blaming us for it. If we only could keep the kid in ourselves a bit more, we wouldn’t be in such a mess. Art can help us to re-find our childlike innocence

Materials used:

canvas, collage, paper, acrylic, varnish, pastel crayon
