"Regarding the artwork, I was inspired by a news story about a 7 years old sister covered brother's head to protect him when both were under collapsed building. In the artwork, I didn't draw the sister but the hand holding the child represents the sister as well as the individuals who have sacrificed themselves for the sake of earthquake victims."
