Embracing Change: The Art of Vacancy
In “Vacancy,” a mixed media painting by Kyle Vena, the theme of transformation and letting go is explored through the metaphor of “Vacancy & a hotel room key.”
As Kyle and his spouse traveled and stayed in various rooms with the numbers 408, 448, 400, 804, and others, they were reminded of the importance of being emptied of clutter, expectations, and any other distractions in order to fully embrace change and a new beginning.
The painting depicts the unlocking of a doorway, symbolizing the power of communication, submission, and forgiveness in the process of transformation.

A SYMBOL of CHANGE and GROWTH
The power of communication, submission, and forgiveness allowed for the unlocking of a new future together in this mixed media painting. Inspired by the recurring hotel room number of 408, the piece reflects on the journey of emptiness and transparency leading to growth and transformation in a relationship.
