Mirage by Artist KWK

The artist KWK’s good will of showing people that while suffering from thirst, it is easy to be deceived by a mirage as a pool of water. She expressed in her artwork by the girl grabs the water pots as much as she can and happily running in a rush to fetch water in long drought climate. She is soaking sweat in a scorching weather and her thirst hallucinate the mirage as water. In fact she is chasing the mirage.
