Artwork title : The Weight of Becoming

A dense, textured core holds traces of time, memory, and quiet burden, anchoring the composition in stillness. From this mass, birds emerge and scatter into space some hesitant, others in full flight. Their movement suggests fragments of transformation, where release is gradual and uneven.

The contrast between the heavy center and the lightness of flight reflects the tension of becoming. Growth does not erase weight; it carries it forward. In this balance between grounding and ascent, the painting speaks of transformation as a process shaped by endurance, where even burden becomes a force that allows one to rise
