Carlson expressed her intention to evoke feelings of nostalgia and the innocence of youth, emphasizing the deep bond she shares with her sister.
During the presentation, Carlson shared that the creation of the artwork took an estimated 100 to 200 hours over several months, reflecting her meticulous approach and emotional investment in the piece. Audience members praised the artwork for its emotional depth and technical skill, noting how it resonated strongly during a recent museum preview.
