Theme: Your Thoughts on Organ Donation

Merit, School Category, 2018

Artist statement:

My design has a heart in the centre to represent the strong love that binds humanity when a donor donates his organ to those in the community with organ failure. The design also shows the different organs that can be donated such as the cornea, stomach, liver, kidneys and heart. In fact, I feel and believe strongly that organ donation and transplantation is indeed the way to save someone’s life as my father had donated part of his liver to my elder brother who was born with a liver failure. The transplant was indeed a success to both my family members and they are now healthy and living a very meaningful life. The liver transplant was indeed the best gift my dad had ever given to my elder brother to live on, giving him a second chance in life.
