Hope

My story of hopefulness is Simon Butler who runs an organisation called Migrate Art. They partner with some of the biggest artists working across contemporary art to raise awareness and funds for homeless and displaced people.
Simon takes these juggernauts from the high art world, these almost unapproachable art world elites, and wonderfully finds a way to bridge authentically what it is he's trying to do.
I also really respect the value of the work that he does in the public space. So in terms of an example in the world of someone that is doing something meaningful, doing it successfully and doing it with some of the biggest artists in the world, I'd say Simon at Migrate Art is my hopeful story.
