For my piece, I recycled a drawing that I had made for a friend’s underground restaurant, added Kanji for HEAL [ING] and printed it on vintage tracing paper. It’s my great pleasure to do something that might aid this situation since as an illustrator; my skills aren’t usually required outside the field, as it were.
 
Yoroshiku!
