This work speaks to the universal experience of facing life’s challenges—especially the moments when we are reminded of our own fragility and the passage of time.
The areas of stark white suggest clarity, resilience, and the possibility of recovery or peace. Similarly, the deep blue in the background evokes a kind of stillness or transcendence—perhaps a reminder of the vastness and continuity of life even in its most difficult moments. “Edge of Light” holds space for the complexity of being human: the rawness, the strength we find in vulnerability, and the quiet hope.
