Oil on linen (Alu frame) / 125 x 180 x 4,5 cm / 2019 - 2020
This work is part of the series 'Silence and The City' (2019 - 2020).
‘Silence and The City’ is inspired by New York City and the search for contemplation and inner silence in everyday life, about finding meaning in life and the connection of the spiritual world with everyday life.
In this painting I used metaphors for the Past, Present and Future in life using the architecture and layout of New York City. The construction wall represents change and future, while the church and the wall facing the construction site represent the past and the marks of history. Walking through the streets of light and shadow you dissolve into Eternity at the end of the road.
