To quote Bruce Springsteen from ”Reason To Believe”, a song about simple people in extraordinary situations, there's always a reason to hope. No matter how dire the situation, one can find a solution. In 1982, when Bruce composed the song, he was in no way living through a pandemic. Alas, we are in 2020 and now we all know what that means. We also found out that the song fits the current context. We are resilient as long as we keep looking forward with optimism.
Thing is, it's not easy to see the good side of things when the pandemic seems to last forever. It's been almost a year and uncertainty is tiring. Our patience has been put to the test. Truth is, we do have reasons to be optimistic. Now, on the 12th hour, when fatigue kills all hope, we need mutual support. Even a ray of hope is enough. Literally.
#MyRayOfHope is an artistic installation reminding us that no matter how hard this year was, we can still find hope. It's a conceptual art piece urging us to think positive for 2021, a year that will certainly be better, thoughts that stay with us, or are shared with our friends on social media using the #MyRayOfHope hashtag.
