La Rosa Benedetta

At first glance, the piece suggests mourning, but it reveals a moment of transformation. The figure stands not in loss, but in the act of becoming-shedding a former self to emerge anew. Her stillness carries intention, as if part of a quiet, personal ritual that asks what must be released in order to evolve. The storm around her reflects this inner shift, a reminder that growth is rarely gentle. Through hardship, we are reshaped and renewed-emerging not as we were, but as something stronger, more refined.
