Oracles is a body of work that explores how identity is shaped through systems of power, and how it can be reclaimed through reflection and courage. It’s about complexity and what it means to live with contradiction. Each piece holds space for both the pain of what was lost and the potential of what remains. Rather than offering resolution, the paintings function as quiet questions. What was cut away? What was planted? What still pulses beneath the surface?
This series emerged from my own lived experience, but it extends outward, toward anyone who has felt shaped by expectation, silenced by care, or fractured by love. It is an offering, not of answers, but of witness.
Oracles invites viewers to pause and reflect. To see not just the figures on the panel, but their internal landscapes mirrored back to them. In that space between image and viewer, something else becomes possible: empathy, recognition, and maybe even regeneration.
