Cracks In the Wall forms a complex, dense core of fabric “bubbles”. The mural sculpture is among the most vividly colored in the corpus, melding apricot oranges with sea blues, lavender violets and chick yellows. Drawing inspiration from the biblical narrative of Moses parting the Red Sea, the mural sculpture incorporates a discernible blue strand symbolizing water, winding its way through the composition amidst a diverse array of rocks. This artwork prompts contemplation on the potential and limitations inherent in our world, inviting reflection on our capacity to surmount challenges and obstacles.
