Stages of the sun
Painted during a time of global isolation, Stages of the Sun explores the lifecycle of a sunflower as a metaphor for human resilience and time passing. Divided into distinct geometric panels, the piece captures the flower from a tightly wound, green bud to a glorious, full bloom, and finally turning its back to the viewer. It reflects a deep longing for the outdoors and the natural rhythms of life that continued just outside our windows, reminding us that every phase of waiting eventually leads to growth.
