This sculpture is inspired by the following poem about the Irish Troubles by Padraig O Tuama applied to racial injustice in the United States.
The figure has wounds which have been cut all the way through the casting, representing the personal and generational harm he suffers; his right hand is clenched in a fist to show his determination to fight injustice, the need to protect his own body; his left hand reaches out and he is beginning to walk forward, showing hope and determination that our relationships will be set right.
