The Worker.
The Worker belongs to the artist’s figurative series — a body of work in which a recurring character navigates the quiet tensions of everyday life.
Here, the artist appears as she often feels when working outside her practice: tired, trapped, and restless. The bench beneath her is too small to hold the weight of so many ideas, so much creative energy with nowhere to go.
The frame around her is not decorative — it is the boundary of “real life.” And the rope behind her back tells you where her energy truly comes from: pulled from somewhere deeper, something that refuses to be still.
A painting about the cost of not making art full time. And the stubborn persistence of the creative spirit anyway.
