This college art piece explores the struggles of being an immigrant, living apart from family, and the feelings of isolation that come with it. The artwork depicts a silent room, symbolizing the emotional void left by loved ones. A spider in the corner, near the solitary girl, represents the quiet companion that loneliness brings, drawn to the stillness of her prolonged solitude.
