"My artwork is centered around the theme of identity and belonging - essentially showing who I am, what is important to me and what makes up my identity. Art is my way of showing others how important it is to embrace and be proud of how you are.
This piece of art specifically explores a part of my high school life, including how school plays a big part in defining who I am, how playing competitive chess has shaped my identity and how teenage life is filled with up and downs, with challenges and obstacles."
