Fracture

"Fracture" is where this collection begins, in the heat of it. A fiery field of deep reds and burnt orange, raw and restless, with dark textured forms pressing in from the edges. Scattered across the surface are small copper pieces, hand-affixed on top of the painted layers, catching light like embers that refuse to go out. This painting is about the moment things start to come apart. Not all at once, but in the small, daily ways that accumulate until you can feel the cracks. The copper pieces aren't decorative. They are the stubborn little lights you hold onto when everything else is burning. "Fracture" is part of the "What Today Will Bring" collection, a deeply personal series exploring the emotional journey of caring for a loved one through mental illness. Painted with layered acrylic and hand-applied copper on canvas, this piece has a physical presence that shifts with the light in your space.
