What She Carried tells the truth that no child should have to live through.
The central silhouette — traced from a real birthday photo of the artist as a little girl — stands alone in a quiet pink void, wearing a party hat and carrying far more than anyone ever saw. Painted over a thick, textured base — rough and uneven like the terrain of a wounded past — this piece holds space for the invisible weight carried by children who were never protected.
Soft pinks and whites surround the figure like a quiet scream, asking the viewer to look beyond the surface.
Mood: Introspective, haunting, vulnerable
Main Colors: Soft pink, white, muted crimson, beige
Inspiration: A memory of being small, forgotten, and unloved. A child in a party hat who learned early how to carry what no one else would. This is her story — told in silence and texture.
