"Red Running Deep on The Street"
In this piece, I explore the tragic story of a woman caught in the crossfire of street violence. This painting is part of a larger narrative that delves into themes of love and loss, seen through the eyes of a man who lost his wife to a senseless act.
The artwork depicts the woman holding a bullet delicately on her open mouth, a powerful symbol of the silent and destructive force that altered her fate. The red on her lips evokes the intensity and depth of the emotions surrounding this tragic event, serving as a stark reminder of the violence that lingers beneath the surface.
Through this piece, I aim to convey the fragility of life and the enduring impact of loss, inviting viewers to reflect on the personal and societal implications of such tragedies.
