Art has always been my way of sparking urgent conversations—shining a light on the stories that demand to be heard without exploiting the people behind them. But I’ve realized that while awareness is a vital first step, it isn’t enough on its own.

I’m fundraising for Refuge because I want to bridge the gap between advocacy and action. By supporting their life-saving services, I am turning the dialogue my work creates into tangible support for survivors of domestic abuse. My goal is to use my platform not just to observe the world, but to actively change it.
