"Real Friendships Overcome the Biggest Waves" is a participatory art piece.

Under the guidance of artist @wanda.direct and the @format.c team, a group of young people from disadvantaged social backgrounds explored their thoughts, emotions, and imagination to tell a story about friendship.

We went through the stages of a creative process together, from ideation and conceptualization to image generation and implementation, overcoming various limitations and fears that stand in the way of free expression. Together, we created a piece of art that reflects our shared vision, but more importantly, we made new friends and gathered memories and experiences that will help us have more courage and confidence to express our ideas and assert our values in the future.
