This evocative piece was created in a period of depression for the artist. The color palette draws inspiration from the ethereal beauty of the northern lights, with their vivid greens, purples, and blues symbolizing fleeting moments of wonder and hope. Through this work, the artist recounts life as an experience of waiting—waiting for the northern lights to appear, much like waiting for moments of joy amidst the cold and isolating environment of depression.
This piece invites the viewer to contemplate the fragility and transience of joy, as well as the resilience required to endure until those moments of light break through.
