Stretched on Your Grave
ceramic, acrylic, graphite, enamel
“Stretched on Your Grave” is an exploration of grief. While grief is often portrayed as somber and subdued, it can also be vivid, raw, and full of intensity. Strong emotion comes with strong color.
The figure’s raised arm may be a gesture of defense, of shelter, or of reaching—perhaps toward something lost, or something yet to come. Her upward gaze suggests both longing and focus.
Inscribed within the work are three poems that illuminate the many shades of mourning—sorrow, love, memory, and resilience:
“Funeral Blues” by W.H. Auden,
“In Blackwater Woods” by Mary Oliver,
and “For Grief” by John O’Donohue.
Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
