“The Weight We Carry” speaks to something deeply familiar — the quiet endurance passed down through generations. It captures the unseen labor of existing within expectation, tradition, and survival.

The water pots represent more than just physical burden — they echo the emotional and cultural weight many are taught to carry in silence. The layered textures and deliberate drips reflect what spills out when holding everything becomes too much. It’s messy. It’s human. It’s honest.

The figure stands with dignity, not defeat — a portrait of balance, fragility, and inner strength coexisting in one frame.

Currently exhibited at ELAHO Museum.
The original is available, along with limited signed prints.

Artist Narrative:

Title: Bathing in His Son

Our exposure to the Sun has a myriad of benefits to
humans including mood booster, sleep regulator, and
blood pressure reducer. We should not be lost on the
fact that these are limited improvements in
comparison to when we expose and Bath in His Son –
The Son of Man.
With Him, we are actually required to be still and
know He is God. In being still, we are invited to release
all that is there to release. The pain, anguish, deep
deep loss, reckless discrimination and invisibility.
Here, The Son says, welcome my son and daughter,
you can give is all to me now. Now, Rest.
