Peace of Tears
Medium: Mixed Media on Canvas (acrylic, texture, and real feathers)
Artist: Angelo Giovanny
Description:
“Peace of Tears” symbolizes resilience — the storm that the purity of the soul faces while trying to remain true in the chaos of the modern city. Below, the canvas shows the contrast of the ghetto and the skyline — the collision of struggle and success, the streets and the towers of ambition. Above it all, a white dove soars, carrying the pain of the city within it.
The dove cries purple tears — a reflection and tribute to Prince’s eternal question: “Why do doves cry?” This painting answers it. The dove cries because purity feels pain in a corrupt world. The purple rain that falls is born from its tears — the beauty that comes from sorrow, the art that emerges from struggle, the hope that survives the storm.
