Gratitude stems from the loss of my mother and a dear friend. At her funeral, the priest compared life to stained glass—some moments may seem like stains, marked by hardship or sorrow, yet together they create something beautiful when illuminated. My triptych reflects this idea, capturing the shifting light of life, the presence of spirits in shadows, and the fading of memories within the body. These are bodies we once touched but never had the chance to say goodbye to. In this way, death is like stained glass—when completed, it becomes the final portrait of a life.
