| Signage: | The artist’s abstract, lyrical image is composed of elements that refer loosely to the right to have access to health care, food, water, and social security. An ambiguous human form appears in the midst of this floating composition that suggests water, leaves and flowers. The artist aimed to create an uplifting and poetic image evoking “the good life”, the prosperity that the protection of our basic needs enables us to enjoy. |
