Fragments of humanity

An art gallery wall displays several paintings, including a large piece depicting a figure in a yellow coat with the words LOVE TRUST HOPE, a framed portrait of a woman with a golden halo, and a smaller artwork showing two children.

On my walk, Fragments Reimagined, a call to end gun violence in our communities, at MCAD (Minneapolis College of Art and Design). For me, these paintings hit the mark because they focus on our common humanity. Many of the pieces focused on guns and violence which I suspect many perpetrators would find exciting and may promote more guns. Until we all agree on our common humanity, I believe gun violence will not be contained.
