The Offering

Artist Statement:

The Offering is a moment of suspended negotiation between the viewer and the subject, between myth and memory. The apple here is not temptation, not sustenance but a question. The girl offers it not with hunger, but with calm certainty.

 

She exists in a world split between symmetry and illusion. The floating islands suggest possibility, but also isolation. The balloon might lift her or tether her.

 

This work is part of my ongoing inquiry into how women are framed as icons in constructed realities, and what happens when we hold our symbols too long.
