About The Artwork

“Duro Timi” (Stand by Me) is part of my collection How Fragile We Are When It Isn’t Blossoming. It is an ode to the strength found in togetherness and the quiet resilience of companionship. The piece visualizes the power of support through life’s shifting seasons, evoking a shared sense of identity and grounding.
Born from my own experiences, this work invites viewers to reflect on the bonds that sustain us—whether through family, friendship, or community—and to recognize the profound courage that comes from standing side by side in the face of uncertainty.
