The art piece “Us”

This painting on the school wall is really inspiring to see. It is called “Us”, and it is collectively created by one class. The description and explanation are shown in the picture below. I really liked the idea that “the color we add to our canvas, represent how in life, we add color on top of each other until eventually we are not even different colours anymore, we are just one thing: one painting, one us.” This piece of art indicates the idea of self-awareness and social-awareness very well. The students can visually see how each of their colors adds a layer to the pre-existing picture, and then their color gets mixed or covered by others. It shows me that everyone matters and each of us has some influence on others. Our experience intertwines together and creates the same history and future for all. This is truly eye-opening for me.
