Artist’s Note:
This artwork is a tribute to my mother—a woman who wore a smile
like armour. Wrapped in the daily struggles of life, she never let us
see her pain.
As a single guiding force for me and my sisters, she played the role
of both mother and father. The mask in the painting symbolises the
smile she carried, while the newspaper robe represents the weight
of everyday burdens she quietly bore.
This painting reflects not just her strength, but the silent sacrifices
mothers make with love and resilience.
