Every animal deserves to have a home. A place where it can sleep without being disturbed. This artwork is about a birdhouse that community members built for a bird that woke them up every day. This story was from a book that I read, but I don’t remember the name. What I recall is how beautiful the bird was and its house too. – Swabura

In this artwork, I painted my parents returning from work. Whenever my father is done with his work, he usually goes to pick my mother at her workplace and they return together. By evening, we are always looking through the windows to see if they are on their way. When we see them, we are always excited especially when they come carrying something in their hands – Dakira

In 21centery black people are still considered as products that can be SOLD and BOUGHT !!?, that’s TERRIBLE!, No one can understand their voices that why to try to speak out for them maybe people can understand and help them. Like Tupac once said, “I can’t change the world but I can change the minds of people who can the world”. I know too I can change the world but I can connect as many minds as possible and inspire change” – Makano
