Theme: Making a difference that endures across time

Merit, School Category, 2024

Artist statement:

As an organ pledger, you could save the lives of others. On the top of the drawing, there is a fish that signifies rebirth, change or health, which shows that organs play an important role to help in our health and we should cherish them or we could lose our life. The mushrooms represent spiritual growth and health which is important for organs. There are also flowers that symbolise love, peace, and joy. The mushrooms, fish and flowers are signs to start protecting our organs like our brain, heart, and eyes. We need to protect our organs so we can donate them to help save the lives of others in need.
