Eye: Betty van de Vorst We've opened our eyes Oil on wood 20x20cm Story of Betty: My eyes have been opened since day 1 Corona (unconsciously much earlier) Since 9/11 my life has changed drastically, my relationship broke down after 10 years and this was all related and I couldn't enjoy anything more. I always had the idea that I didn't belong here and was always different from everyone else.

I Also went to Save the Children demonstrations, walk for freedom in Den Bosch and Eindhoven, etc etc. I spread flyers as much as possible and did hugging protests to share cards with information on it.
