[3rd Place] Connecting art to the heart and soul
Artist: Marcellas Njonji
Age: 23 Country: Cameroon
It’s all about connecting art to the heart and soul. My goal is to use my drawings to create awareness and to examine the bad habits youths cultivate in the society. The trauma of phone and social media addiction, drug and alcohol abuse, peer pressure, depression and a means for them to recover afterwards. I use my works to simplify these experiences in a way that individuals relate to them, having a one on one conversation with the artwork, there’s a moment of self examination, creating change.

These five interconnected subtopics form the core of the piece, each brought to life through distinct visual elements.
Generation Z(eal)
Artist: Meghan Falconer

As depicted in my piece, "Generation Z(eal)", I believe I am well because I am greeted by the flora and fauna in my yard each morning. I have access to potable water, quality education, a safe space where my voice is heard and a great system of family and friends. However, some are less fortunate and this makes me uneasy.

Freedom
Artist: Sofia
Age: 17 Country: Peru

Surrender to the Earth
Artist: Daniele
Age: 15 Country: United States
The well-being of the planet we inhabit as humans has an influence on us as well. This inspired me to create "Surrender to the Earth". By surrendering to the earth that brings us health and keeps us grounded, we leave behind the greedy wishes of materialistic power that tears us apart instead of bringing us together.
