Beauty in Becoming depict the quiet relationship between identity, vulnerability, and growth. The rose symbolizes beauty, love, and renewal, while the thread lines across the face reflect the experiences and memories that shape who we are. With closed eyes and a gentle posture, the figure embraces a moment of stillness, reminding us that strength can be found in silence. Through this piece, I use thread and portraiture to celebrate the beauty found in becoming through self-reflection, resilience, and the quiet courage to embrace one’s journey.
