Delicate Balance

The artwork shows a hand gently balancing a small, colorful marble on the tip of an extended finger against a dark background. The marble’s intricate swirling colors draw attention, symbolizing complexity and fragility, while the hand’s careful posture suggests a moment of tension or delicacy. The dark, textured background creates a stark contrast, emphasizing the marble’s vibrant appearance and evoking a sense of isolation. The shadowy area below the marble subtly resembles a leaf, hinting at natural elements. This piece explores themes of balance, control, and the precarious nature of existence, inviting contemplation on the weight of small actions.
