Caring for people with AIDS. Everybody's Business.This painting shows that people can safely care for family and friends with AIDS. The waves around the central image suggest the warmth of friendship and love that can greatly benefit the well-being of someone with AIDS. In the centre is an eye looking towards the future when a cure will hopefully be found.
