I depict an innocent portrayal of life that reflects deeper societal issues. Monopoly and Battleship symbolize capitalism, greed, war, and violence, while I move toward the light in the storm on my journey through the Game of Life. Sitting on a stitched horse inspired by my grandma’s pillow, I welcome a cardinal as a symbol of family and guidance.
