Wife (The Blindfolded Tea Party)

A veiled figure in a small crown stands at the edge of a watercolor dreamscape, her eyes bound as if authority must operate through intuition rather than sight. Around her, soft indigo washes bleed into sienna trunks and botanical silhouettes, letting space dissolve and re-form like memory—half garden, half interior psyche. The floating cup, severed fruit, and scattered blossoms read as quiet offerings, symbols of nourishment and desire suspended in a field of uncertainty. Through its porous stains and drifting outlines, the work turns blindness into a paradoxical clarity: a meditation on power, tenderness, and the fragile rituals we perform to locate ourselves.
