Over the past year, I've realized one crucial lesson: regardless of our political beliefs, religious affiliations, race, or any other factors that divide us, we must lean forward and truly listen to the perspectives of others, or else we risk losing our unity as a nation. Put away the phone, close the laptop for a moment, and actively listen to those around you. You may discover something new about them, or even more importantly, you may uncover something valuable about yourself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 147%;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\" style=\"font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 147%;\"\u003e2009\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 147%;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\" style=\"font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 147%;\"\u003eBrown onyx and alabaster\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 147%;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\" style=\"font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 147%;\"\u003e12\"h X 16\"w X 10\"d (includes base)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robin Antar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35372700860570,"sku":"","price":5710.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0414\/6947\/7018\/products\/conversations-3.jpg?v=1649027633"},{"product_id":"conversations-3","title":"STONE SCULPTURE PROJECTIVE","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 147%;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 147%;\"\u003eIn the field of psychology, projective tests are personality tests utilized as a means to uncover hidden emotions and internal conflicts within an individual by having them respond to ambiguous stimuli. When I shared this particular piece with a friend, she immediately perceived two figures huddled together, engaged in what she interpreted as gossiping, laughing, flirting, or simply bonding. This prompted laughter from me, as it perfectly illustrated the subjective nature of perception. Interestingly, another friend, who was going through a challenging divorce, saw the two figures depicted as standing back to back, seemingly ignoring each other. While I may not be well-versed in psychology, I do understand the power of art. These distinct figures, varying in size, color, and shape, invite viewers to project their own narratives onto the artwork. Who's to say that they are even human figures? Another friend envisioned the lavender figure as her beloved cat, seeking comfort after a stressful day at work.

Their colors and shapes also set them apart from one another. In the midst of the racial and political tensions gripping our nation, I aimed to convey that deep down, we are fundamentally alike. Does it truly make a difference to our ultimate existence on this Earth whether we are Black or White, Democrat or Republican, affluent or impoverished, tall or short?
