A Monument to Resilience

Door Maykel Schoonus, 2024

On the edge of oblivion, she kneels, a solitary figure against the vastness of an arid world. Her hair, the color of a dying flame, spills forward, a bright contrast to the dull stones that gather before her. She is the alchemist of the desolate, seeking to transmute the barren into the bountiful. Around her, the stones are not mere fragments of the earth, but symbols of the sustenance she yearns for in a land where nothing grows. Each one is a hope, a prayer cast into the hard ground, a wish for life where only emptiness thrives. The sky looms large, indifferent to her struggle, yet she persists. This is a meditation on perseverance, a hymn to the unyielding human spirit that hungers for more than mere survival. Here, in this stark landscape, she is a monument to resilience, a whisper that even in the most inhospitable reaches, we dare to feed our dreams.
