Proud

Tell us about the artwork.

It's about why Gypsy culture is not taught in schools - teachers at school don't really understand about Gypsy life and their way of living.

What inspired you to make your artwork?

It was a question that I asked my mum. Every other culture and religion is taught in school.

What action would you like people to take to make the world better for girls and non-binary young people today?

Treat everyone the same. Or as you would like to be treated.
