Life
This artistic painting Life is made with oil paints. It shows the poor, hard lives of people who always experience the worst, such as floods, earthquakes, wars, etc. The beloved life, the lost roots that they leave behind for a better future. The work is performed in a monochromatic palette with cold tones, which emphasizes the atmosphere of hopelessness and uncertainty. Above the ruins, a flock of birds flies in an unknown direction, which is associated with people who are forced to leave their homeland in search of a better life. In the foreground are a group of people standing in line, symbolizing the struggle and patience in the uncertainty of migration. Some carry luggage, while others stand empty-handed, which depicts the different burdens that each person carries - be they physical, emotional, or psychological. Overturned cars and debris from the destruction are visible on the ground, further reinforcing the sense of instability and the collapse of old values. The painting summarizes the path of those facing harsh realities, but at the same time, it also depicts the hope for a new beginning. The work carries a strong emotional message and leaves room for different interpretations, causing the viewer to reflect on the fate of migrants and the uncertainty that the future brings.
