Artist Statement:
Even in the midst of chaos, a smile can be an act of resistance.» This work depicts the face of a smiling child, not only as a symbol of innocence, but as a reminder of the inner strength we all carry. The smile here represents hope that survives, even in the face of the invisible challenges of mental health. In times when the adult world is marked by anxiety, fear, and uncertainty, this image invites us to rediscover the purity of simple joy, emotional resilience, and the transformative power of hope.
