I am so sad. See the date on this artwork.We haven't come very far have we. I bought this artwork at a Student Exhibition at the Brisbane Institute of Art where I was an Art Student, in 2002. Now it's rearing it's ugly head again. How hard is it. Don't put children in Detention. Most of these children have gone through enough trauma coming to the lucky country. When will humanity take over, it is not OK to let these children wither away in isolation, dispair, fear, pain and terror, no matter where they come from, no matter what their circumstances. I'm ashamed to be Australian or even part of the human race when I hear what decisions Adult's make for innocent, vulnerable children, in the Western World.
