In Crack, a woman’s face emerges through the weathered texture of peeling paint and worn plaster,

as if she is part of the very wall that frames her. Her expression is contemplative, softened by

shadows, while patches of gold and grey create a mosaic of light and decay across her skin. This

fusion of human presence with crumbling surfaces captures a sense of resilience amid fragility—a

quiet strength that endures beneath layers of time and wear.

This piece is a meditation on imperfection and the beauty found in brokenness. The artist weaves

together elements of erosion and identity, symbolising the cracks that life etches upon us, revealing

both our vulnerabilities and our depth. Crack invites viewers to embrace the narrative held in every

scar, to see each fracture not as a flaw, but as a testament to a life fully felt and fully lived.
