Painting Overview

In this artwork, I aim to capture the idea that the past inevitably catches up with us, regardless of our efforts to control it. It can come to us unexpectedly, triggered by various stimuli such as images, sounds, emotions, or moods.

These triggers are transformed into visual representations, and if I were to create abstract art, the painting would likely be abstract. However, since I draw figures, the painting is categorized accordingly.

Overall, “The Past” is a reflection of the inevitability of the past and its impact on our lives.
