Urban Life

This mixed-media artwork brings to life the textures and layers of an urban environment, highlighting the essence of timeworn walls, dimmed graffiti, and traces of past imprints. It symbolizes the cycle of renewal and decay inherent in cityscapes, where old narratives are overlaid but never fully disappear. The piece portrays organized disorder, mirroring the ever-evolving pace of city life while encouraging viewers to discover concealed elements within its intricacies. The textured surface, achieved through mixed media and collage techniques, replicates the tactile quality of worn surfaces—perhaps peeling posters, aged bricks, or faded murals. The inclusion of geometric shapes, scribbled notes, and fragments of text underscores the concept of a continuous narrative, as though history is being constantly rewritten on the canvas.
