About artwork: This painting is focused on the tennis player, Emma Raducanu at Wimbledon in 2021. Raducanu retired in the fourth round at the end of the first set, after some super intense rallies, she started to breathe heavily and felt dizzy. The medical team advised her not to continue. Despite this defeat, there was still an overwhelming sense of a new star forming and catching light.
