The sculpture “Fuck Black and White, I Am Blue” stands as a bold statement on the universality of inner sadness, transcending superficial distinctions like class, status, or outward appearances. The high heel, crafted from layers of pine cone shells and painted in deep blue within, speaks to a hidden world of emotion beneath the polished exterior. The juxtaposition of the textured, earthy surface with the intense inner color reflects the weight of sorrow that resides, often unspoken, inside each of us.

The title defiantly rejects the simplicity of binary perceptions—black and white—and instead claims the complexities of the color blue, a symbol of depth and melancholy. This piece invites viewers to acknowledge the layers of their own experiences, the private struggles concealed by the roles they wear. It’s a call to embrace authenticity, to let the inner sadness be recognized, even as we continue to move through the expectations of life.
