I grew up in a home where belonging was something you had to earn, so my feelings about family have always been a bit complicated. And when I see the way succulents growing in these tight, snuggly clusters—like they’re these little bursting families—I feel drawn to that natural belonging and closeness but also a little repulsed by the reminder of my own childhood wounds. But with this painting, I want to remind myself of the hope in community and found family, where we can be both close and distinct. Where support systems can nurture and not suffocate, and where breaking off to start your own cluster is celebrated—no matter what form it takes or who you choose to love.
