The theme of Unfinished Works is meant to symbolize all that remains to be done in helping those affected with HIV/AIDS and to prevent the spread of HIV. While we have seen many medical breakthroughs and people are living longer, healthier lives, many are still facing on-going illness, and infection rates are continuing to rise. With no cure or vaccination on the horizon, we are likely to be battling this epidemic for years to come. What lies ahead is our “unfinished work.”

Each submission should reflect the artist’s hope, desperation, celebration, fear, or dream about HIV/AIDS and the work left to be done.
