Description
During a visit to their homeland, the artist reclines on the sandy shore, allowing their mind to drift into reflections on life and death, ultimately architecting a portrait of themselves. The water enveloping the wild grasses subtly reveals a human silhouette: the face tilted to the left, identity obscured, limbs relaxed and at ease. Each meticulous brushstroke captures every blade of grass and branch, merging in a gentle green hue, like a symphony of life that evokes the eternal cycle of existence, where human life intertwines with the clean and clear stream.
