Mother And Child

A spare, incisive line carves two figures from the page—an adult bearing a child—while the dense patchwork of motifs reads like a stitched archive of lived experience, each mark a small insistence of memory and identity. The rectangular field of vermilion behind them functions as both halo and alarm, flattening space into an icon-like stage where tenderness is held under the heat of endurance. In the quiet diagonal of the embrace, the work suggests a lineage carried forward: care as burden, burden as devotion, rendered with a frank, almost ritual clarity.
