Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "My hand-drawn portrait of Kelley is at the center of my artwork. Her fierce countenance portrays her power and desire to help the oppressed. The crown of her head blends into the brick frame, depicting her sympathy for the laborers. On the top left is my illustration of child laborers confined within a brick framework. Their faces are a bit distorted, expressing the traumatic effects of child labor."
