Happy Holidays!

The sculpture I had started during my residency at Buffalo Creek Art Center was finally completed. This is the 3rd piece I have done for my full-figure study with the incorporation of 2D with 3D. The title is "May the World be Kinder to my Child!" A young woman who has lived a hard life is wishing for a better life for her baby in this piece. I imaged garment factory workers in Bangladesh and Syrian women under siege while making this.

A better world for our children is our universal wish. I shall wish for exactly that in this holiday season.

p.s. I am seeking a personal story that goes with this sculpture. Do you happen to know any?
