"Red Bird"
Acrylic
2025

"Red Bird" is an acrylic painting on paper. Created in 2019, this is the artist's only monochrome work to date. Amidst this grayscale world, a single crimson bird perches on a skeletal branch. A vibrant burst of color that commands attention. Its scarlet feathers glow like a living ember against the muted backdrop, a striking contrast that transforms the bird into both subject and symbol. Is it a beacon of hope? A warning? Or simply a fleeting moment of beauty in the quietude of the forest?

The artist’s masterful use of black and white heightens the tension between stillness and vitality, while the red bird becomes the soul of the composition, a punctuation mark in nature’s silent story.
