Power Stance
Dr. Chanel Beebe, Digital Artwork 2021
"Power Stance" is an energetic fusion of bold colors, abstract symbolism, and cultural heritage, capturing the essence of personal empowerment and joy. The central red figure, with arms reaching skyward, embodies strength, liberation, and the fearless pursuit of one's highest potential. The fluidity of the form speaks to movement and self-expression, urging the viewer to embrace their own power unapologetically.
Incorporating Adinkra symbols, traditionally used in West African art and communication, the golden icon embedded in the piece represents Eban (protection, security, and power) and Fawohodie (independence and freedom). These symbols echo the themes of inner strength and enjoyment of life’s journey, reminding us that power lies in both resistance and in embracing pleasure.
