This piece explores the sacred beauty of connection.
Different hands, marked by age, culture, gender, and story, reach toward one another holding fragments of the same puzzle. Each piece is incomplete on its own, yet full of purpose. Together, they reveal something greater than any individual part.
The work speaks to unity without uniformity — the truth that we are not meant to carry the whole picture alone. Our differences are not obstacles; they are essential. The gaps, the tension, and even the missing centre invite participation, reminding us that belonging is formed through relationship, trust, and shared vulnerability.
At its heart, this painting reflects a deeper spiritual reality: restoration happens in community. Healing unfolds when what is broken is brought into the light and gently placed alongside others. No hand is insignificant. No piece is wasted.
This artwork invites the viewer to consider their own place in the story — what they hold, what they bring, and how connection can transform fragments into wholeness.
