"Tenderness" portrays a woman, her form partially blurred, amidst a forest setting, graced with serene expressions and surrounded by ethereal white and neon orange flowers. This artwork delves into the theme of tenderness lost through the trials of PTSD, symbolized through the contrasting softness of the flowers and the woman's obscured presence. The piece is enriched with vibrant orange embroidery and gold lines that adhere to the theory of fifths, encapsulating the complex interplay of beauty and trauma, as reflected in the accompanying quote from Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter."<\/p>\n
\u201cSome attribute had departed from her, the permanence of which had been essential to keep her a woman. Such is frequently the fate, and such the stern development, of the feminine character and person, when the woman has encountered, and lived through, an experience of peculiar severity. If she be all tenderness, she will die. If she survive, the tenderness will either be crushed out of her, or\u2014and the outward semblance is the same\u2014crushed so deeply into her heart that it can never show itself more.\u201d
