'Sonder - Spread Love' - 131cm x 55cmI began drawing Sonder in 2018, inspired by the word coined by John Koenig: Sonder the realization that every person you pass carries a world within them: their own thoughts, stories, fears, and dreams, just as vivid and intricate as your own.

I began drawing Sonder in 2018, inspired by the word coined by John Koenig:

“Sonder - the realization that every person you pass carries a world within them: their own thoughts, stories, fears, and dreams, just as vivid and intricate as your own. A reminder that behind every glance lies a lifetime unfolding.”

That understanding changed how I move through the world. A few years later, I came across another quote that stayed with me:

“If only love and positivity spread as quickly as hate and negativity, what a world that would be.”

From then on, I began adding small hearts connecting the figures, a quiet symbol of both Sonder and the simple, powerful act of spreading love. I hope they inspire you to carry that feeling forward.
