GROWTH
Growth reflects Karla’s personal evolution the conscious decision to turn inward in order to expand outward.
To create the world she wishes to inhabit, she first had to cultivate discipline, eliminate distraction and confront herself honestly. The work embodies the understanding that transformation begins internally.
Unlike her upright figures, this mannequin lies on her back a posture of surrender, introspection and quiet strength. Growth is not always visible. It often occurs beneath the surface, in stillness.
Organic textures and floral elements suggest regeneration and renewal. Just as nature must root itself before it blooms, spiritual evolution requires patience and inner work.
This piece represents an ongoing process a commitment to continual elevation.
