Joy
Joy - Painting by UTN,

So much of life is spent struggling against one thing or the next, whether it's society and politics, our jobs - at home, school or work, or our own self-image. This series explores that feeling of inevitability, day after day, and contrasts it with that which inspires. I found that these struggles make excellent stories.
