Health Enhanced by Art 2022 (HEArt Journal)

Together We Heal

Artist Statement

Manoa, the pup, was left in a house alone and nearly starved to death. He was rescued and began the journey towards healing. He continuously displays such gratitude for being saved and likes to contribute by engaging with the public. Manoa went through training to learn skills to help in the community. Unfortunately, during his training, the pandemic began, and lockdown ensued. Without being able to go out, Manoa found another creative way to keep helping others by hamming it up for the camera in this picture to remind people that healing is possible, especially when we authentically come together and support one another.
