Artist statement:

Around the world, countless people are sick and are in need of an organ transplant. In this artwork expressing and conveying something tangible is coming into your life through attraction & belief. For most of us when we are in our last straw of life, stars can closely be associated to life. In this painting, the stars intertwine closely to form up shapes of kidney, heart, lung representing encouragement and guidance as not to lose hope. Shooting stars have captivated humankind which symbolise positive energy and changes in one's life. The milky way lightens up the galaxy symbolising strength & endurance as miracle is coming your way believing in it till it manifests for you. Donate your organ as it can help you give the receiver a second chance in life.
