Artist Statement
Although we have different skin colors, lifestyles, and social positions, at a basic level we are all members of the same human species. We can observe differences, but these are shaped by social constructs. It is precisely this social illusion that distinguishes us from other animals on Earth. Our identity, perspective, and values set us apart from other species and make our personalities unique. You may not like someone’s way of life, but you should respect it, as long as it does not cause physical or emotional harm.
