Rise Up: Ignite is a breathtaking piece of upcycled phoenix art that radiates resilience, transformation, and unapologetic colour. As the second work in Lisa Watkins’ Rise Up series, this artwork builds on the theme of renewal—crafted entirely from materials that were once destined for landfill.
The phoenix takes shape through an explosion of glowsticks, nail polish, spray paint, resin, pens, and repurposed balloons. Each feather is meticulously arranged to create a sense of movement, light, and energy. The richly layered background adds depth and intensity, echoing the heat and chaos from which the phoenix emerges.
This work is a tribute to personal and collective rebirth. It symbolises the beauty that can rise from destruction and waste—a visual declaration that creativity, like a phoenix, can spark from the ashes of the discarded.
Rise Up: Ignite is more than a painting; it is a rebellion against throwaway culture, a call to rise again, and a celebration of colour, life, and second chances.
