Shelter

Two figures, semi-abstract: a larger one, and a smaller one nestled against him, almost hidden inside him. The contours are fluid, soft — vulnerability and trust given a shape. She has leaned into his warmth and, for a moment, left her troubles at the door.

We all need this. Not only when the news fills with war and threat, but in the ordinary storms too — work, money, illness, the plain ache of feeling alone. Everyone needs a safe haven to turn to, a place to set the weight down and gather strength for what comes next.

I kept it semi-abstract on purpose. No faces, no specifics, so it isn't one couple but anyone — protection, intimacy, and unity made universal. The figure carrying the feeling rather than the likeness.
