I'm in love with her works, especially "The Butcher Boys",
plaster sculptures of three life-size humanoid beasts with powdery skin, black
eyes, broken horns, and no mouths sitting on a bench. The artwork represents
the brutal dehumanizing forces of Apartheid in South Africa. The animal parts
show how people stripped themselves of their humanity and put themselves above
others, thinking they were better.
Always love artworks that inspired by social issues :)
Some part of me told me that it’s the right decision to
leave that place, to find a better opportunity. To chase my dream, follow my
passion, and maybe have a life that I really want to live. The other part told
me that I was too stubborn and proud to even consider staying there for a
while. And this waywardness will lead me to a road where thorny plants will cut
and scratch my skin each time I go farther, eventually.

My insecurity has never hit me this hard.
I wish I’m unperturbed. I wish I don’t have to covet this
and that.
