“Where the Love Resides” explores a moment of emotional reckoning - when disillusionment gives way to clarity and truth. Drawing on the archetype of Mary Magdalene as a figure of insight and sovereignty, the work repositions her as a symbol of emotional awareness and strength.

The subject’s gaze is steady and contemplative, inviting reflection on the presence and absence of love in human experience. The painting navigates the tension between vulnerability and resilience, holding space for grief, questioning, and transformation.

In Eaton’s practice, colour functions as an emotional language. Purple suggests transformation and inner authority; aqua reflects intuition and connection; pink speaks to the expression of love; and white offers clarity and openness. Together, these elements position love not as sentimentality, but as an active, guiding force grounded in self-awareness and personal truth."
