Inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi, where broken pottery is repaired with gold rather than disguising its cracks, this piece reflects the idea that what has been broken can be rebuilt with greater meaning and strength.
The visible fractures become part of the beauty of the object—much like our country, marked by loss, hardship, and sacrifice, yet continually pieced back together through courage, unity, and hope. The scars are not hidden; they become a testament to everything endured and to the strength it takes to rebuild.
