El cielo

Arisleidy Condado Chavez

Refran: "No matter how dark the moment is, 

there is always a drop of hope"


Card Description: For my Lotería card I wanted to share my thoughts on the topic of dorgas. I chose it as a topic because I feel that it is important to know more about drugs. The colors of the piece represent sadness and perdition. The images in the piece represent how a person can ruin their life by using drugs. For me personally, this card represents sadness and disappointment because it makes me helpless to see how many teenagers end up losing themselves in the habit of drugs. I want the audience to see how drugs affect you or what it really looks like to use a drug, especially heroin.
