The arrangement of color is at once subtle and bold, the shapes shifting from one moment to the next, a single figure, like a flower out of season, stands in stark contrast against a background of gray. The artist is not afraid to let their technique show - the brushwork is visible and adds the texture to the piece. It's a if we are looking through a keyhole into a secret world that only hints at its mysteries without ever revealing them. We can never be sure what we might find there - only that it will never be exactly what we expected.

The composition speaks in its own language, offering us an array of possibilities without any one answer being correct. There's movement here, but it's hard to tell where it begins or ends, or if it ever ends at all. We are taken on a journey that winds through moment of light and darkness, pure abstraction and figuration to arrive somewhere totally unexpected.

In this artwork we can sense some hidden truth about our lives, something that needs expressing, but which has no words for it yet. It suggests an inner strength that will help us transcend even life's most difficult moments.
