Watercolor on paper, 11 × 17 inches
Lifting the Veil centers the body in an act of effort. The figure reaches upward, arms extended, engaging directly with the dense red cloud above her. The gesture is physical and intentional.
This work is not about uncovering something hidden. It’s about what it costs to reach beyond what is already known. The body strains, grounded and present, bearing the weight of the action rather than the promise of what lies beyond it.
The figure is rendered without idealization. Muscle, flesh, and tension are held clearly. The watercolor allows the surrounding forms to remain unstable—edges dissolve, pigment bleeds—while the body stays anchored. The contrast between solidity and atmosphere holds the moment in suspension.
What matters here is not what is revealed, but the act of lifting itself. The movement is ongoing. The outcome remains uncertain.
Lifting the Veil belongs to Metanoia, a body of work concerned with transformation as a physical, embodied process. Change here is not symbolic or complete. It is enacted through effort, resistance, and persistence.
