Love in the Sanctuary
$4,000.00
In this piece, I explore the themes of community, sanctuary, and the transformative power of love. The closeness of the figures symbolizes the strength of social bonds and the nurturing environment of a sanctuary where love and understanding flourish. Despite their individual differences, they form a cohesive whole, embodying the essence of unity and collective care. The title, "Love in the Sanctuary," emphasizes the potential for societal transformation. The unity, connection, and love practiced within the sanctuary are powerful forces that, if emulated in broader society, could create a more harmonious and compassionate world. This painting serves as a call to carry the sanctuary's spirit of togetherness and empathy into our daily lives.

Artist Statement
My work reflects emotions of curiosity, resilience, vulnerability, and strength. After losing hearing in one ear as a child, I became more reliant on visual cues—a perspective that shapes my art today.
The figures I paint, with their exaggerated eyes and single ear, represent how I experience the world. They invite deeper connection and remind us that perception is personal and varied. Through form, texture, and color, I capture often-overlooked moments, celebrating the beauty of seeing and feeling life in a different way.
