This piece is about the Syrian refugee crisis. Something that I admire about this work and Ai Weiwei's work in general is that it has a powerful message and addresses important societal issues. His work represents the "art takes courage" idea because it often deals with controversial topics, such as the refugee crisis. I would like to incorporate more challenging content into my work and try and be more daring because I do not really think that the art I am making currently takes a lot of courage, because it does not really deal with difficult or controversial topics, it is more surface level.
