Contemplating Life

A solitary figure stands at the threshold between breath and silence, holding an iridescent skull like a fragile question cupped in hand. Against a field of passionate red—life at its fullest pulse—mortality is met with calm acceptance, not fear. The skull shimmers in blue-green hues, suggesting death is not an extinguishing but an opening into new form. The quiet gaze becomes a meditation on impermanence, where life and death are intertwined truths rather than opposites. This work invites viewers to embrace fragility, discovering beauty in the delicate temporality of existence.
