Daughter Rising

This piece speaks to the woman who turns and walks back through the lineage.

Her face is both landscape and legacy formed from wintered memory, ancestral architecture, and the quiet weight of what was carried before her. The staircase rising through her being represents the conscious climb: the decision to heal patterns that were inherited, unspoken, and endured.

At the threshold stand figures, they are symbolic of the mother line not as ghosts, but as witnesses. The frozen branches threading through her profile are the generational roots that once bound her. Now, they are being reclaimed.

She does not walk for herself alone. She climbs for the mothers who could not.
