“I want to share a message of action - there are many terrible things going on around us, and we’re plugged into the news via social media like never before. It’s easy to feel like there’s nothing we can do except watch and wait for someone ‘more qualified’ to step in. But we all have a role in making the world a better place, and a responsibility to ourselves and one another to do what we can. If one person sees this artwork and is inspired to make a £5 donation to a charity they care about, it will have served its purpose.” - Adrian Cox
