My artwork, 'A Thorn in My Side,' uses this powerful idiom to explore the complex theme of persistent suffering. The piece visually interprets the idea of a constant source of irri tation that cannot be easily removed. The central image of a beautiful rose with prominent, sharp thorns symbolises the dual nature of a relationship or situation that is simultaneously beautiful and painful. The viewer is drawn in by a rich palette of soft pinks, muted purples, and deep reds. These colours represent the conflicting desires to embrace love while also wanting to escape the pain that comes with it Show more
