About the Artwork:
“We have many different passages in life which lead us to happy places, exciting places, sad places or dark places. “Passage” touches upon the many paths we have to take to get to where we are going. We have many different emotional battles within us and sometimes the choices seem bleak and we cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel, but we get through it. There are boundless opportunities and we have to make many choices throughout our lives and then, in the end we all end up in the same place.” – Hanna Jaeun
