Chamiree
(2023)
Carved paper, mixed media on wood panel
40 x 30 in
Cracks in the Temple series

Chamiree holds heat without release.

Intensity turns inward rather than erupting.

Pressure gathers as resolve, not fracture.

Anger is worked with, not expelled.

Energy slows and deepens.

Fire changes character through containment.
