Gouache. A woman in New Zealand juxtaposes her position with that of a woman in Iraq. The NZ woman is surrounded by prosperity, while the woman in Iraq is wracked by loss, pain, revenge, and a world without hope. Two women, two vastly different realities, residing under the same sun.

Oh yeah - the 'we are Switzerland' comment was because New Zealand didn't join the coalition of the willing in the invasion of Iraq, while in WW2 Switzerland also chose to remain neutral - so I was drawing a parallel.
