Sihay

Raw. Fragile. Pretty. Deadly

Watercolor on paper

Maia Enriquez (Sihay), 2024

Painted through tears, smiles, and anger

Finished with grit, silence, and tranquility

A rose is very mortal. When you see a rose, this beautiful rose, that in a day or two is dying — its head is falling over, and it’s withered — is there a great deal of difference between a rose and my subject matter, really?
