Thanks for Being There to Hold My Ears As They Burn

Elicser Elliott

The piece centres on love, support and holding space for another.

About this work

The piece centres on love, support and holding space for another. In the immediate physical surroundings, a new park is being made, along with a stage, playground…etc. The middle mural calls for patience and understanding for all people. For instance, the red sweater character is not having a good day, holding his knees, the second character is there to hold space for them in support, noticed by the body positioning. Let the space be a place for connecting and a core driver of compassionate exchanges.
