"They Grew from Concrete"

An iris stands bold and defiant, blooming against the odds in a world of graffiti-marked textures and neon-lit energy, a tribute to resilience and beauty born from struggle. The layered background pulses with urban vibrancy—hidden messages, street markings, and cosmic elements intertwining like the stories of those who refuse to be broken. Creating this piece felt like honoring the spirit of Tupac’s words, a reminder that even through the cracks of hardship, something powerful, something breathtaking, can rise.
