Inspired by the final chapters of Job, The Drops of Dew reflects on the awe-inspiring contrast between God's majesty and the smallness of humankind. The question, "Who has begotten the drops of dew?", subtly woven into the piece, serves as a reminder of God’s intricate care for every detail in creation, from the vastness of the universe to the delicate formation of morning dew.
This artwork captures a fleeting moment of pure joy and curiosity, as a child reaches out in delight - perhaps to catch a falling drop or marvel at the wonders of the world around them.
