The last two years have been so difficult for so many, in more ways we even thought possible - conflict, extreme poverty, hunger, oppression unrelenting or developing across the world, and in the middle of all that a pandemic of proportions unseen by most of us alive today.

Thank you, to each and everyone of you creating art that documents the times we’re living in. Thank you to each of you creating art to heal yourselves, your family, your community. Thank you, to each of you fighting for the right to express with freedom and humanity. You matter, you make a difference. Even if you can’t see it.

And whatever you celebrate, happy holidays to you and yours, from all of us at the World Artist Network.
