The artwork aims to pose the question: can society look beyond addiction and still recognize the beauty and humanity of an individual? Does the mere appearance of the cigarette make you look down upon the artwork? Does it change your perspective? Would you appreciate it more if it was without? What does this say about how we treat addicts? Many of us are in need but are turned away because of societal prejudices surrounding addiction. Will our flaws forever define our beauty?

Creativity is a means to express oneself, explore inner emotions and feelings in a physical medium, and a way to find inexplainable pleasure to all of the senses.
