"Every child has his own dream, to be a doctor, a teacher... but my dream is to have a peaceful world without bombs and nuclear weapons, a world that will be so nice and beautiful without wars, blood and killing. My painting describes what is happening at this period of time; imagine that the world is divided into two parts: One were a bomb rises and causes sadness and in the other part a shiny sun rises and makes people happy and joyful. When the people shoot the bomb to get rid of it, the bomb gets angry and explodes hence killing people. However, in the safe part, people play, sing and dance with their best friend; the sun! My dream can't just be a painting, it is much bigger. If only everyone can help us have a descent life, which life will you then choose: A safe safe life or a boom boom life?!"
