Past, present and Rupture.
This time, something dreamy or surreal I wanted to paint. No, I am not reading Dali’s books nowadays. But I am really influenced from my dreams i see while sleeping.
The idea is related to the years we pass on, measuring our growth and maturity, and the time we will be passing on.
The bottom part – the past as a tree, faces etched on them of the people we met and vanished. Its fixed and en-rooted much like the history of everyone and even if liked, we can never change that. Only mixed bag of emotions and memories remain.
The middle part – The present moment is very much like skin, bone and flesh, something we see and feel with all the elements of joys, pains, nervousness, melancholy or fear etc. We can amend this, kill it, overcome this, relive it or leave it as it is like our decisions of our lifestyles, gaining or sacrificing. Whatever we do, our present is always based on the feet of pasts, so if the root and branch of that past is fixed with some sorrow or joy, those branches begins to grow as the bones within ourselves, calling us the vertebrates of the past. We are fixed to the same journey of that moment almost forever, like the necessities of the parents, education, place we were born. Even if we try to move, we can always feel the bone inside.
Upper part – Our Future ruptured and then melted into us, seconds by seconds, which we always perceive with hope and wellbeing. Its always in our head and represents as an idea, though never it can be seen and touched before handed. And that’s the fun part, to dream and to imagine. That’s the reason why we strive for colourful as it can be like the planets and stars and sometimes it can be as dark as universe. The moment we get to know the future, the head becomes frozen and clustered with those doubtful statistics of that predicted future. It can be cool or as hot as volcanoes but somewhat depends on the pains, joy, familiarisation we have in the present.
So in a way, our life is always fixed from bottom, mouldable and easily influenced in its torso and windy, fluid or visionary from its head. Always related among each other.
