About the Artwork:
Starting in conditions of growing anxiety and anticipation of danger and completed to the sound of sirens, this work is about reflecting and transformation, evolution, and personal transitions. Shadows suggest traumas and tension, the light indicating clarity, power, and peace. As we experience changes around us and inside us, our identity evolves and the shadows and light, both real and imagined, adjust too.
