Memories of the past that destroy the future

“Memories of the past that destroy the future” - Original charcoal portrait

In life, we are often urged to live in the present, yet the weight of the past can profoundly shape our future.

It captures the intense struggle between the past and the present, where the echoes of bygone experiences crush the potential for a brighter tomorrow. This artwork evokes the deep emotional conflict of being unable to escape the shadows of the past, making it impossible to fully embrace the future. A timeless piece that speaks to the complexities of memory, loss, and the inescapable influence of history on our lives.
