Palm Beach Fires

Palm trees stand tall against a sky lit up with raging fire, their silhouettes caught between beauty and destruction. Cars pass by on the road in the foreground, as if daily life continues while catastrophe unfolds just beyond the horizon. The piece captures the tension between denial and urgency, how disaster becomes background scenery in a society accustomed to crisis.

The burning landscape is more than a fire; it symbolizes environmental collapse, political neglect, and the normalization of danger. The work asks whether society will continue to drive past the flames; or finally stop, confront them, and act.
