Series — Six Paintings

What the
Body Keeps

Emotions don't pass through us. They settle. They are held in muscle and memory, in the way we breathe, in what we reach for and what we can't release.

Six paintings. Six emotional states. Each one asking the same quiet question — what are we still carrying?

Flooding — What the Body Keeps
I

Flooding

Oil on canvas  ·  9 × 12 in

Some emotions don't arrive gently. This is what overwhelm looks like from the inside. No edges. No escape. Only the feeling, enormous and close.

Trapped — What the Body Keeps
II

Trapped

Oil on stone panel  ·  11 × 14 in

Some feelings never find their way out. It lives in the body, taking up space, neither released nor resolved. Waiting. Dense and still, no light reaching in.
