Chronicles of Life – Relationship. Freedom. Balance explores the passage of time and its transience. The outlines of people and objects in these works are shadows of the past, imprinted on the canvas.
We all live our lives differently, but what matters is what we carry forward—and how it empowers us to remain present.
Relationship. We form many relationships in life. Some we are grateful for. Perhaps these are the ones that shape us most, offering essential experiences that help us move through life.
Freedom. Where does it begin? What does freedom mean for each of us?
Balance. The inner and the outer are always in motion. Sometimes, this motion feels against us. But at other times, the lightest touch is enough to shift everything.
This work is dedicated to all those who, for various reasons, have lost their homes, countries, or established ways of life—and who now strive for the future or search for belonging.
