Fragility (2023) is an egg tempera on canvas painting (40.6 x 51cm (16" X 20")) that proposes the idea of a nude that has been sliced into pieces indicating different traumas and emotions with the eye- a circle. A reminder that one's eye holds one's thoughts and mental state.

It's supposed to be designed as if it was a mechanical robot; that humanity has been worked like an object and that's the only state that it knows- fragility. Humans were meant to break down until the system gets broken down and then another cycle of fragility begins as the new becomes the establishment and replaces the old.
