The red heels, a focal point of the painting, pop against the more muted tones of the legs and background, drawing the viewer’s eye and adding a sense of drama. The choice of red evokes passion, confidence, and perhaps even a sense of defiance, while the curved forms of the legs could symbolize the personal nature of identity and expression—how we navigate the world through different roles, perspectives, emotions and experiences. The fluid cubist approach fractures the image, suggesting that there is no single way to see or understand the subject; instead, it invites the viewer to consider the complexities beneath the surface.

This painting might symbolize the journey of self-discovery, the steps we take in life, and the fragmented yet beautiful nature of our experiences. The red heels, often associated with femininity and empowerment, stand as a metaphor for the bold steps we take in our personal and collective journeys, challenging norms and embracing our complexities.
