You Chafe, and you Cramp
You Chafe, and You Cramp is a 18 x 24" pastel painting from the Unboxed Collection, which explores the emotional and psychological toll of confining labels and expectations. In a subdued palette of purples, teals, and grays, a contorted, introspective figure is woven into a backdrop of overlapping squares that symbolize restrictive boundaries. The softly layered pastel textures create a contrast between the subject’s vulnerable form and the rigid geometry around her, invoking the universal struggle of trying to fit into prescribed roles. Part of a series celebrating the liberation found in self-discovery and authenticity, You Chafe, and You Cramp invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences of breaking free from the walls that hem us in.
