You Are Not Alone_2

wollongongbotanicgarden.com.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/002...

Is a sculpture inspired by the recent lock-downs. During COVID I think we learned the importance of human connection and we also have a new found appreciation, respect and understanding for the people within our society who may have or continue to experience, isolation as part of their everyday life. I personally experienced this isolation as a new mother. I noticed this as we went into isolation and it didn’t really change my life as I was already so isolated by early motherhood. After these experiences I wish to help people feel more connected, I want to help them feel more seen and heard in their loneliness. Sometimes even knowing that you’re not the only person who is lonely can somehow create a sense of connection. This sculpture is made with the intention of emitting a loving, understanding presence. A space where people can sit if they are feeling lonely to feel supported loved and heard because every human deserves this.
