Episode 25 - The Pietà: Beauty Born from Sacrifice

In this episode, I reflect on Michelangelo’s Pietà — Mary holding the body of Christ after his sacrifice — and explore what it reveals about the role of sacrifice in art and in life. Too often today, sacrifice is seen as negative, tribal, or outdated. But the Pietà reminds us that true beauty, transformation, and meaning require letting go of something in order to gain something greater. As artists, sacrifice is not optional — it’s the path itself. Whether it’s time, comfort, or ego, what you give up creates the space for your authentic voice to rise.
