“When We Face Fire” depicts the moment when crisis forces our true selves to emerge. The central flame represents both destruction and transformation—an inner fire that tests resilience while illuminating what cannot be ignored any longer. The scattered human figures reflect different emotional responses to pressure: fear, denial, courage, surrender, and the instinct to protect. The warm yellow field juxtaposed with the chaotic reds and blues captures the clash between external turmoil and the fragile balance within.
This piece is a visual metaphor for adversity—showing how confronting the “fire” can break us, reshape us, or ignite something entirely new.
