Tears of the Fallen

The drawing “Tears of the Fallen” depicts a face with closed eyes, silently weeping in profound sorrow. A single tear runs down the cheek against a backdrop of dark, textured shadows, symbolizing grief too deep for words—a mourning transcending time and place. The closed eyes indicate the pain of having witnessed too much, yet the tear remains, a fragile but steadfast reminder of love, loss, and the scars left by war. In its quiet simplicity, the image calls for remembrance and compels us to confront the humanity we risk losing to violence. It urges us to honor those who have fallen by striving for peace.

Shadows of Conflict

“Shadows of Conflict” depicts two overlapping hands that are identical yet fragmented, symbolizing the duality of human nature in the context of war. The hands reach out but remain restrained, blurring the lines of individuality and illustrating how conflict can erase personal identity, reducing lives to mere shadows. Their jagged texture suggests both physical and emotional scars, while the stark monochrome palette universalizes the experience of suffering, stripping away context to reveal humanity’s inner struggles. The simplicity of the drawing confronts viewers with the tension between destruction and redemption, prompting reflection on the idea that the same hands capable of violence are also capable of healing.

A Haunting Chorus

I portray three ghostly women, each symbolizing a distinct aspect of war’s relentless grip: Destruction, Grief, and Memory. The first figure, fractured and reaching outward, embodies the physical devastation of conflict. The central figure, mouth open in a silent scream, represents the deep, consuming sorrow left in war’s wake. In contrast, the fading, shadowy third figure signifies the quiet erosion of memory as time distances us from these horrors. These spectral forms merge into a haunting lament, capturing the lingering, unseen scars of conflict and the urgent need for remembrance, urging viewers to confront war’s emotional and enduring legacy.
