Artist Comments
"This piece is a departure from my usual palette and reflects a desire to infuse lightness and joy into the profound uncertainty of life," says artist Robin Okun. An abstract figure stands against a vibrant background with patterns that evoke an artful resonance. A touch of blue adds a subtle tension that complements the pinks, oranges, and yellows, creating a visually engaging composition.
