untroubled

(2023)

 

untroubled  

 

Carefree, as a statement and as a deepest wish. The work seems so light at first glance, the structure and depth are not noticeable at first. But upon closer inspection, the pastel colors could actually represent a type of protection or masking to hide inner insecurities or fears. It could be a reflection of how people sometimes present an external image of calm and carefreeness while internally struggling with challenges and difficulties. The discrepancy between external appearance and internal reality. Appearance and reality, authenticity and masquerade.
