Description: "Imagine yourself between these wings, close your eyes, and make a wish! See yourself traveling to the place your dreams will come true!

I named this sculpture after Dandara, a trans woman killed by violence, who along with many others from the LGBTQ community, dreamed to be treated with dignity and respect.

The odds are stacked against us dreamers and only courage and determination can free us to create, reinvent and express our inner self.

This is a monument to the dreamers, the ones who live and die making the impossible happen."
