About the Artwork

Artist Claudia Cave tapped into subconscious and dream imagery to compose her painting 'Risk.' Featuring layered, contrasting, and connecting elements, this piece is symbolically open-ended and seeks to spark questions in the viewer, to "give some food for thought or offer an object of meditation."

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Kennewick School District.
