The Hearth of Sacrifice

Mixed Media Gold Leaf on Canvas,

Year: 2025

'The Hearth of Sacrifice' is an emotive exploration of pressure and urgency, rendered through the use of vibrant red and luminous gold leaf. Red channels the tension, vulnerability, and intense energy of rebuilding from vulnerability, while the composition speaks to the unseen burdens of adaptation and the psychological cost of forging a new life in solitude. The painting evokes both the pain and the strength required to make meaningful personal change.
