Themes of mindfulness and the complexities of care work are intertwined together in "Woven Perspectives," offering viewers a nuanced exploration of the landscape of caregiving. Through a delicate interplay of ink strokes and weaving of handmade paper, the series delves into the intricate dynamics of caring for others while attending to one's own well-being. Each artwork becomes a moment in a caregiver's journey—a journey marked by moments of tenderness, resilience, and self-discovery.
At its essence, "Woven Perspectives" serves as a reminder of the importance of incorporating self-care practices into any caregiving routines.

By nurturing their own well-being, caregivers are better equipped to navigate the challenges of caregiving with compassion, resilience, and grace.
