Solitude
The Artwork:
A single red chair stands alone, and for once loneliness is not the story. Look down. The shadow it casts is not black. It blooms — soft pinks, warm golds, scattered petals of light spilling across the floor. This is the quiet argument of the whole piece: that being alone with yourself does not have to be dark, and the part of you no one sees does not have to be the saddest part.
We are taught to fear the shadow, to imagine that what lies beneath us is heavy, formless, without color. But here the self turns inward and finds something unexpected — that solitude can be a garden, that the inner world is not an absence but a place with its own weather, its own bloom. The chair does not apologize for standing apart. It simply stands, vivid and unhidden, and lets its shadow tell the truth.
To sit with yourself is not to disappear. It is to be seen by the only witness who never leaves. Let this be a reminder that your quiet is not empty, that turning inward is its own kind of homecoming, and that even your shadow can be made of color.
Not to decorate. To remind. — Vague
