Inner strength
Varnished
The painting depicts an almost withered tree branch and metal gears. The tree branch symbolizes ourselves. Every life event, emotion, and experience is like layers of tree bark. There are moments when it feels like we have no strength left, we are exhausted, and drained of energy because everything becomes too much. But the idea behind the painting is that we must not forget how truly strong we are inside. We just need to be able to find that inner strength so we can bloom again—just like this tree branch.
