- Rise Up!
Throughout history, humans have used the virtues of defiance and resistance to rise up against whatever holds them back, in order to find their true selves. Positive Deviance, the idea that the uncommon behaviors and strategies of certain individuals or groups enable them to find better solutions to problems, has also been a central driver of invention, innovation, and determination. Rise Up! is inspired by the idea of personal and collective empowerment through meaningful self-expression, and the recurring theme of the Bolero portrays this driving, collective resistance to the status quo!
