In July of 2022, Brianna Grier died falling out of a moving police car while having a mental health breakdown.

The brunch strokes are purposeful, but I completed them with empathy in mind. I want to keep the composition simple but filled with meaning. The color theme represents vastness and loneliness, but also kinetic energy found in warm orange tones.
