Inspired by Job 13:15, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him,” this charcoal piece portrays a girl with a solemn expression. A torn section across her face reveals a glimpse of her homeland, an island with a lone coconut tree
and the sea beyond. Though her upbringing was at times difficult, distance has brought clarity. What once felt heavy is now held with gratitude, as she reflects on the place that shaped her.
