AFTERSHOCK is a testament to the transformative power of navigating the intricate, layered emotional journey within. Created using charcoal and graphite, this body of work delves into a time steeped in grief, capturing the ebb and flow of emotions as one sheds the weight of shame and embraces the genesis of a new beginning. The contrast of light and shadow within the pieces mirrors the profound emotional shifts of this transformation.

AFTERSHOCK invites viewers to connect deeply, fostering empathy and reflection. It’s an exploration of resilience and renewal, offering a shared space for solace and understanding in the universal human experience.
