Description
Inspired by a verse from "Let it Be" by the Beatles'And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be'
Statement on the seemingly neverending conflict and violence in the world, especially Africa. When light hits the glass piece, it projects a larger shadow of the lyrics. This symbolizes that when "light is shed" on the violence that is going on in the world. The bigger question that needs to be answered is, "What do the people of the world plan to do about it?"

Firstly, shame about the watermark but of course, I understand! I absolutely love this piece, the small preview image does not do it justice. Unfortunatly I can't comment from a technical point of view (you requested comment from #Xpose-it ) But I can say that I absolultely adore the sentiment that you've conveyed here. The words match this piece perfectly, and I especially like what you've done with making sure that when light hits this, the shadows project the words...and the idea behind that. Beautiful beautiful work!
