Survival Request

Durga Puja, a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, is observed in West Bengal, India as the biggest festival. After Puja, the clay idols get immersed in the River. During Immersion, a portion of the hand of the idol was broken and fell on the river bed. Child trafficking and child killing for communal issues are very common in the global situation. For me, The broken figures show a child is trying to come out of the danger ( or maybe the Past ), it may be the last try.
