Painting is a way of seeing, for me, a more subtle and complete way.
Up against death was created during the Covid year when the promise of vaccine was just at the horizon. I remembered feeling vulnerable in the face of sickness and death but hopeful at the same time. During the days of ‘Shelter in place’, we all felt somewhat trapped, thus I choose to express my feeling with lively green setup against the animal skull in a cramped horizontal formate. My still life exudes a warm, brilliant and hopeful sense, that’s how I felt about life at the time and would very much like to continue embracing.
