EMBRACE UNIQUENESS
What makes us different, is what makes us unique. Embrace Uniqueness is a meaningful collaborative artwork between Branden and Aqil, at an art jam event. Branden was 6 years old at that time, with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), while Aqil was a teenager, with Autism.
Though they had their own set of challenges to deal with, their differences did not matter as they sat together quietly to paint.
The bold strokes and colours say loud and clear, “Wonderful things are possible, if we can just embrace our uniqueness.”
