" I created an art piece in regards to gender equality. My inspiration came from International Women's day, as it just passed. I believe that it would be beneficial for more people to be aware of gender equality and treat everyone equally. The idea of placing men and women on a balance scale came to mind as it very much represents equality; both sides are equally weighted without any bias. When others view my piece, I hope that it will remind them of this existing issue and raise their awareness about it. My goal is to inspire other individuals and influence them to take action in the mission of fighting against the injustices in our society. "
