ELEMENT · FIRE

Some fires are not meant to consume us. They are meant to keep us alive.

Inner Flame is about the fire we carry quietly within.

The figure sits within an upward-pointing triangle — the traditional alchemical symbol for Fire — while golden cracks move across her body, marking what has been endured and the places where light finds its way through.

At her centre, the anatomical heart remains visible: a reminder of vitality, love and the force that continues beneath the surface.

For me, Fire became not destruction, but endurance — the part of us that keeps burning even when no one else can see it.
