Description
In Wild Tears, Alia focuses on the eye of a horse, but reveals something far deeper: vulnerability, resistance, and the aching cost of control.
The close framing draws the viewer in, face-to-face with emotion. The tear is delicate but deliberate, glistening with unspoken meaning.
Muted browns, the subtle gleam of leather, and the soft mane contrast with the vivid turquoise background, isolating the moment, amplifying its emotional weight.
The square framing inside the canvas acts like a window, a barrier between the viewer and the subject, suggesting both connection and distance.
With this work, Alia offers a quiet rebellion. A portrait not of the animal, but of its emotion. Not of power, but the pain beneath it.
