Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "The doves serve as a metaphor to represent the innocent children that Mother Matylda is saving while wearing a calm, almost happy expression on her face. This is meant to show how she was able to reassure the children she saved, showing them how to feel safe in the face of danger."
