Description
In this quadriptych painting, the canvas is divided into four panels, each adorned with a single word in bold white against the black background.
“If” floats softly, like a whispered possibility, inviting contemplation and choice. “So” stretches across, bridging the gap between past and present, suggesting continuity and consequence. “Or” stands out boldly, presenting diverging paths and alternate possibilities, urging the viewer to consider different options. “By” anchors the composition, offering guidance and direction, illuminating the path forward amidst the darkness.
Together, these four words create a powerful visual narrative, inviting reflection on choice, consequence, possibility, and guidance within the vast expanse of the black canvas.
