Held the Line
2015
Acrylic on canvas
48 × 20 × 1.5 inches
Held the Line reflects a moment of collective presence and interruption in public space. Through vertical movement, compressed forms, and layered color, the painting evokes the tension and endurance that arise when individual bodies become part of a shared act of resistance. The work explores solidarity, persistence, and the quiet force that emerges when people hold ground together.
