Invisible lives artwork depicts a family of Sri Lankan war refugees who are known locally. Without a permanent status in Australia, their everyday struggle is often unbearable. After meeting the family and becoming close, I have decided to bring awareness to their situation and encourage empathy and support in various ways. Purchase price of the artwork includes donation to the family and is coordinated between myself (the artist) and the family.
