The painting depicts a visible, inner struggle. Between her clasped hands, a trumpet lies inert, cold. It is a weight of silver and brass, the symbol of a powerful, ringing voice silenced, an unexpressed cry pressing against sealed lips. Its presence is the burning desire to be heard, to pour her truth into the world.

The Scarlet Ibis, embodying the fragility of her soul, is a blazing apparition. Its fiery red colour is an eruption of pure passion, a vital energy so intense it seems painful. The woman's hair, raven black, is the only thing moving, lifted by an invisible wind. It is the tension between the forced silence of the trumpet and the mute crimson cry of the Ibis: a struggle between restrained expression and the irrepressible nature of her heart.
