"Underwater Lily Pads" by Anna, 16 | Under the Surface 2021
These lily pads have no choice to be separated they just have to stay, as I do, where I am. I can’t be separate, be apart, I just have to grow with my surroundings.
About Anna: "During my time Under the Surface I learned about how the water calms me and how it makes me forget about all the stuff above the surface. My favorite place to visit was the Apostle Islands because the lake looks like an ocean. From the lures of the mussels to the nets of the caddisfly - there is so much more under the water than I realized."
