Description
Like a strained smile, strained compassion does not come naturally. It's the type of compassion that is shown outwardly but not felt inwardly such as a posed photograph. The cold hues and constrained lines tell the story of surface sympathy that comes from expected, social duty instead a heart filled with genuine compassion. As the artist, I see the sympathetic but false smiles found at a funeral.
