Two green anchors stand upright — refusing to claim land. Instead of possession, they suggest a new kind of grounding: in collectivity, in thought, in peaceful collaboration. Suspended between them: a hammock made of gilded barbed wire. A deceptive place of comfort — shining, yet painful. Those who have much also hold the power to create change. But true peace is not found in golden retreat — it lies in shared responsibility.
