Hoffman comments, "I feel very honored that among other interesting and meaningful works I can show my painting 'Reverse Perspective'. It is for me important experience, because thousands of people will be able to see my work which is a result of my interest in life of people who are/were excluded from the community during the II World War. This painting shows Jewish history considering the traumatic consequences faced by man till the present time. I see Holocaust as a most important fact in history of civilization and our consciousness. Living in Poland with its deep rooted Jewish History is difficult, society feels obligated to reflect and remember events and situations which led to the Holocaust Jewish people – who disappeared and about these who live now with all this trauma. This is not just a Jewish concern it's an all people trauma worldwide. The big barbed-wire chair in front of the painting is prepared for us today - it's mean that we shouldn't sit comfortable in our safe homes, with well-being blindness, while thousands of people are and still under pressure and standing in front of extreme problems of life.
"Embracing Our Differences is huge and important event also in this way, that many of visitors are young people, students who can know and study many different problems from our history and present day - themes which are still live in our minds."
