"Tenacious"
Her alabaster pale white skin is broken by the shiny metal of inspiration, hunger and other’s hope. She listens to the words impossible, never and can’t and she smiles with a wicked defiant grin. Her eyes beaming brave against the world. No stairs can tame her and no words can cause her to falter. She is determination and reason balanced by an elegant graceful beauty. As the wind floats through her golden locks she savors the onlooker’s astonishment no matter a catwalk or the orange crumble of a quarter mile track. Just try and tell her she can’t do something.
Aimee Mullins is the double amputee model and athlete who inspired this piece.
