Following the 2010 earthquake, many stories emerged from the devastation, including the tragic deaths of 180 children and 6 staff at the St. Gerard's School in Port-au-Prince. Artist Nadège Florian depicts the collapsed building, and next to it, a poignant scene of the children's bodies covered by a cloth in the colors of the Haitian flag, imprinted with the words 'Unity is strength'. A survivor cries out for help. Above, the sun weeps.
