Broken

Description

The work “Broken” is a raw, intimate exploration of emotional collapse and the vulnerability that follows profound pain. Rendered in stark black and white charcoal, the figure curls in on herself, a pose that signifies withdrawal, exhaustion, and the need for self-protection. The vibrant, active background of electric blue and turbulent orange heightens the sense of internal chaos surrounding her fragile state.

This painting speaks to the moment when one is forced to stop and acknowledge complete depletion, honoring the heavy weight of sorrow. The small, solitary white flower at her feet symbolizes a fragile spark of hope or the potential for healing that remains even in the deepest despair. “Broken” is an honest tribute to the human experience of falling apart, reminding us that there is courage in acknowledging one’s lowest point.
