I am the founder of B-Side Art, a nascent non-profit organization that seeks to empower individuals to regain their agency through art. “Democratia” is the messenger bearing the vote of the people. She bears the laurel crown of victory for democracy wins when the scales of justice are balanced and every vote is counted. She is caked in mud as a reminder that democracy takes hard work. When the sun rises on election day, will Democratia carry your ballot?
