Pass The Hope: Myanmar relief
Pass The Hope: Myanmar Earthquake relief is a student-led art campaign standing in solidarity with Myanmar, following the devastating earthquake on March 28, 2025. Inspired by the traditional Burmese toy Pyit Taing Htaung – the name meaning “the one who rights itself when thrown down“, a bright and beautiful representation of resilience and the inevitable rise in the face of hardship.
Students and creatives are invited to contribute Pyit Taing Htaung inspired art to ‘Pass the Hope’ to millions of people affected, to remind them that the world has not forgotten them in difficult times of recovery. Join in, make your own traditional Burmese toy and pass the hope!
It is a huge honor to have been given the opportunity to be the first non-Burmese artist chosen to support the PTH campaign, lead by Nichole K (she/her) from GSA’s Mackintosh School of Architecture. Working together, we delivered visuals, 3D animations and a visual identity for PTH Glasgow to inspire artists across the world to create their own Pyit Taing Htaung to help the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) reach their fundraising goals. Please check out the campaign and support by creating your own Pyit Taing Htaung or by sharing and/or donating to the DEC’s justgiving page! This is an ongoing effort and all support is appreciated.
