Ziarah Janssen – Hama Gallery

As an older sister, artist Ziarah Janssen always feels a deep sense of responsibility to ensure her little sister is happy, has everything she needs, and that she can protect her. When Ziarah got pregnant, she realized she couldn’t be as present as she once was. But her little sister, in her own loving way, sensed this and gave Ziarah a note that said, “It’s time to give back”. It was exactly what she needed to hear. This artwork is a gift from Ziarah to her little sis, Tisja.
