"Blackness of Light" depicts a woman who has journeyed through profound darkness yet continues to search for light. The painting portrays her in a moment of stillness, where shadows and light intertwine around her, symbolizing both the weight of her past and the promise of a new beginning. Her expression reflects quiet strength, with eyes that have seen pain but now glimpse something brighter, a glimmer of resilience. The background may seem dark, almost overwhelming, to represent the struggles she has endured. Yet there are strokes or fragments of light piercing through, suggesting hope breaking through despair. These rays aren’t harsh or blinding—they’re soft, gentle, as if coaxing her spirit forward, representing the delicate nature of healing and the gradual return of optimism. The woman’s posture, perhaps slightly turned toward the light or reaching out, embodies a subtle yearning for peace. Her face, though touched by the shadows, carries a hint of calmness, a small but steadfast flame of hope that continues to burn. "Blackness of Light" is a tribute to every survivor who carries their history within them but does not let it define them. It’s about the courage to hold onto that fragment of light even in the darkest moments, a reminder that hope, though fragile, is always within reach.
