“In the Air ” by Gabrielle Donaldson-2021
Created in 2021, this piece captures the exhilarating sensation of transformation — the moment when slipping into a pair of shoes evokes the feeling of flight. With each brushstroke, Gabrielle visualizes the emotional lift and freedom that comes from stepping into one’s power, dreams, or identity. The artwork invites viewers to imagine shoes not just as objects, but as vessels for aspiration, movement, and becoming.
