Article 12
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.

About my work
I want to use art as a voice and informer for the injustices in our contemporary society.
Here in Australia we consider that we have an amazing country and living conditions (and a lot of the population does). But Article 12 does not seem to be honoured or considered in regard to people and families that are in detention centres under Australian governance. Children and families are often separated and one or more members placed in different places until final rulings are made about whether the applications have been successful.
