Burdens of time
Inspired by the visual language of Salvador Dalí, this painting explores the psychological burdens we carry through life. An elephant, giraffe, and deer move through an ordinary town on impossibly thin legs, balancing strength, ambition, and vulnerability.
The work contrasts immense internal weight with a familiar everyday environment, bringing the surreal into the middle of ordinary life. A clock, a quiet street, and fragile structures all suggest the pressure of time and the uncertainty of the journey ahead.
Although everything appears unstable, nothing falls. The painting is ultimately about resilience—the ability to keep moving forward while carrying more than anyone else can see.
