Arrival In The Absent Void

Despite the cheer, there is a profound sense of mourning; the painting represents a "now" that was never allowed to happen.

The upside down people amidst bubbles floating everywhere, signals the ghost of a place a destination you are barred from entering, existing now only as a persistent, flickering ache in the mind.

A home defined not by its walls, but by the hollow space it left behind. It is a beautiful, cruel reminder of a paradise that is only permitted to exist within the safety of a faded daydream.
