What we loved about Spikes and Thorns Can't Break My Bones is its quiet power—how it holds both pain and beauty without flinching. Javiera Estrada transforms vulnerability into strength, inviting us to see thorns not as threats, but as proof of survival. The work feels like a whispered reminder: resilience can be soft, sacred, and wildly alive.
