"In this picture I captured in an acrylic painting, my friend who was jumping around because she was happy to be free, yet on the contrary it got to me that me and her are free, yet we strangle ourselves in that so called freedom because we neglect the fact that our world is been ridden by nuclear weapons and sadness. When does the freedom to do as we wish and start wars, start infringing on other people's wellbeing? when people get hurt for fights which dont involve them, as well as have their childrens generation [my generation] suffer for that! Say No to Nuclear Weapons!!"
