In Motherhood, a figure sits in stillness, her face marked by a single tear as a swirl of tangled, vibrant shapes surrounds her. The colors pulse with life and movement, yet the dark spaces between them suggest both weight and absence—echoing the complexity of what it means to hold so much within yourself.

This piece reflects the layered experience of motherhood: the beauty and grief, the growth and sacrifice, the quiet tears that often go unseen. The figure is both part of and apart from the tangle, embodying the push and pull of identity, longing, and love. Motherhood is a meditation on how something so full of life can also feel like being swallowed whole—and on the strength it takes to bloom within it.
