My project is meant to resonate young girls who are still uncertain of their place in this world. Where we were at one point gripping onto the warmth and comfort of our mother’s security, we must now grapple with the fear of not belonging to ourselves in the current political climate that risks our autonomy. The last moment of joy and innocence I remember having was being in my mother’s arms, now I am a graduate and meant to fend for myself in this world that prays on my downfall. I must now learn from my mother and have thicker skin in this vicious world that I must one day protect my daughter from before I eventually teach her to succeed as we all ultimately do.
