Born and raised in Zambia, I saw first-hand what HIV/AIDS does to a sick person and the rippling effects on their family, and what it feels like to have this devastating disease. At the time, there were no life-saving medicines so it was a DEATH SENTENCE. Having lesions on the feet felt like one was walking on fire making it very difficult to move about. The front view of my piece depicts these feelings of pain and loss. Both pictures were dusted on, not painted on.
More recently, new developments prolong the lives of the sick and reduce the effects of the disease on a person’s body, mothers with HIV/AIDS are now living more normal lives without transmitting the disease to their newborn. The back side of my piece depicts these feelings of happiness and tearing away the stigma that comes with HIV/AIDS.
