Making art is not vanity. It is survival.
We live in a time that crumbles each day under the weight of indifference, fear, and speed.
And yet, there are still those who stop.
Those who choose to create instead of consume, to feel instead of distract themselves.
As Amie McNee reminds us, making art is not an act of vanity — it is an act of survival.
It is resistance. It is testimony. It is the silent cry of those who refuse to become spectators of their own era.
From this awareness, Pietà was born: a work that does not seek perfection, but truth.
Marble becomes body, form becomes voice.
It speaks of fragility, compassion, pietà as a human gesture — the ability to recognize in another our own vulnerability.
It is not a remake of the past, but a call to the present.
An invitation to remain human.
Because truly, the only thing that can save us from this life is art.
