About the Item

“Unbreakable” is a tribute to the strength of the human spirit and the quiet courage of independence. The artwork portrays a man with a disability who earns his living through his own talent, consciously choosing dignity, self-reliance, and freedom over dependence. This piece celebrates all people who, regardless of circumstances, remain strong and continue to act — those who search for a way forward no matter how limited their options may seem. It is a visual reflection on resilience, inner power, and the desire to stand firmly on one’s own path. The idea for this artwork was born from real life. After encountering this remarkable man on the street, his determination and self-sufficiency became the inspiration for creating Unbreakable — a symbol of respect, admiration, and unwavering human will.
