Title: She Burns // Artist: Rachael Caringella
about the piece
| This piece emerged in the aftermath of the 2024 election as a visceral response to the collective grief and rage felt by many, especially women. She started with a face but the flames consumed it entirely while fire burned in her chest. With head and heart ablaze she became less about one woman and more about a universal feeling. The burning that happens when hope and fury occupy the same body at the same time. May the fires of our collective rage turn into fires of transformation. Painting was done with acrylic paint on an 11″x14″ canvas panel. |
