Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "A bright, colorful heart inside a ribcage symbolizing the strong woman who helped so many children live healthy lives, with flowers growing out of the heart, flourishing and blooming, showing the new life she gave to so many and symbolizing how Taussig never let anyone or anything ever keep her from achieving her goal. Helen Taussig has truly inspired me to reach for my goals and let nothing hold me back, both for the past, present, and future."
