Not Alone

Description

This compelling collection, titled “Unity and Boundaries,” offers a striking depiction of distinct individuals or groups, each confined within a uniquely colored box. Surrounding these boxes are white boundaries, whose characteristics vary—some are bold and rigid, while others are fragmented or extend beyond the box’s edges. These dynamic boundaries reflect how we interact with others in real life: allowing some into our personal space, holding others at a distance, or even crossing boundaries ourselves. What makes “Unity and Boundaries” especially powerful is its message of unity amidst individuality. Despite these personal boundaries, the artwork conveys a sense of collective oneness, capturing the delicate balance between personal space and communal connection.

The painting, titled “Not Alone,” vividly portrays the resilience and unity of communities in the aftermath of disaster. It captures how people came together in the face of profound loss—whether of homes, businesses, or loved ones—showing the powerful strength that emerges through solidarity during times of crisis. The artwork underscores the message that no one can face such challenges in isolation; rebuilding and healing require the collective effort and support of an entire community.
