PEACE & LOVE for VENEZUELA AGUSTINA CASAS SERE LEGUIZAMON

I am an artist from the WORLD and for the World. I am artist, I am not a political artist. But this project is diﬀerent. I was called to this project based on my duty as a human being, a human being that has been fortunate to live in societies to when my freedom is respected: As a woman, as a citizen, as daughter, as an artist. As we all know, over the course of human history, ART has been a catalyst for change, a weapon used by the oppressed against the oppressor. It was that way during the Greco-Roman period and during the Renaissance. Even today, in a period of great technological openness, where we have instruments like Twitter and Facebook, the power of ART in the hands of the oppressed can drive change. I hope my small contribution to the cause of those profound suﬀering in Venezuela can help bring freedom and justice for all. ank you so much to Peace for a Nation for giving me this amazing opportunity as a PFAN (Peace for a Nation) agent. PEACE & LOVE
