Right now, 66 million girls are missing from classrooms. When girls are young, they are often seen merely as children, but when they start to develop into women, they are suddenly subject to their societies' partialities around gender. It is at this moment that they begin to fall behind in their education. All girls should be allowed to gain the skills and confidence to succeed. They should not be treated as property but as individuals with unique voices, talents, and freedoms.

When a girl is kept from maximizing her potential, it is a loss not only for that particular girl but also for her family, community, and country. 

I believe that empowering girls, keeping them away from violence, providing them with education, and later, employing them as women is one of the best ways to ensure that societies thrive and don't fall behind in a global economy. 

I had the incredible honor of showcasing this piece in the De Young Museum of San Francisco, in their Open exhibition from October 2020 to January 2021.
