This brightly coloured oil painting is a still life composed of familiar objects associated with care and home remedies. A juiced lemon sits beside whole fruit, suggesting how something meant to help can also cause harm. The work reflects on the quiet tension between care and intention, where kindness and cruelty are often difficult to separate.
