My paintings are also a refuge where I immerse myself when I'm feeling tired or discouraged. The brushes, pens, and blank pages are my best healing remedies. So, as long as you have dreams, aspirations, and the determination to pursue them, success will come in the future. Let’s paint our own futures!"

Consolation Prize - Primary - Message from the author: "Learning is a journey of self-discovery and exploration of the world around us. For children in remote areas, igniting a passion for learning is not just about imparting knowledge; it’s also about opening the door to their dreams and hopes. Each lesson serves as a building block for their future. I hope that the valuable lessons I share will spark the flames of their aspirations and lay a foundation that guides them on their path to knowledge. I wish all of you a burning passion that leads you to your dreams in the future."

Consolation Prize - Secondary - Message from the author: "The Yagi storm in the North has swept away countless homes, buildings, and schools. Families are in disarray, and children wander lost and covered in mud, separated from their parents. This is the aftermath of a terrifying natural disaster—something humanity cannot combat. After all, people may be lost, homes may be destroyed, but the Earth will keep spinning, and the sun will rise in the East and set in the West. So, my only dream is that, after everything that has happened and continues to unfold, everyone will find their own light. Standing under the clear sky, I realize there’s nothing more joyful than seeing humanity live in harmony with nature."

Consolation Prize - Secondary - Message from the author: "Each of us goes through different stages of life, and the journey up those steps demands continuous effort and determination. However, beyond our hard work, knowledge is the key that opens the door to success. Books pave the way for a girl to get closer to her dreams and aspirations. On this path to success, she is supported by her beloved home and family, as well as VAS HVT—the school that has nurtured her growth and fostered her dreams. This highlights that the pursuit of dreams begins with knowledge, and learning is the foundation that enables you to achieve your greatest ambitions."
