Title: 01 / Respect to Aspirations
Description: "Respect to Aspirations" reflects how hope manifests through the act of reaching towards it. Inspired by traditional Khmer motifs and Khmer royal ballet, angelic hands grasp a golden lotus stem through different Khmer ballet hand movements, symbolizing the importance of holding firmly to one's own personal goals and sources of strength. From the eclectic details to the radiant lotus center, the piece conveys that hope is not merely a wish, but also a journey of perseverance towards a brighter future.
