Flower for Detained Children
In
2018, I was thinking about what to do for my first large 3-D flower
piece. I was scaling up from a 6” x 6” panel to a 24” x 24” one. My
Buddhist practice compelled me to create something that would make
positive change in the world. The news coming from the US border with
Mexico was devastating, and I decided to do something for the children
in the detention centers in Texas, the children that have been separated
from their parents, placed in cages, and who have suffered terribly. I
want them to know that someone is thinking about them, someone is
sending them love and hope in the form of a white flower.
