Summer Wars

100 x 75 cm - Watercolor, Acrylic & Resin - 2024 - Sold

Exhibited in Closed Alpha Testing

Bonding a rare combination of 3 mediums and setting the unusual base, Summer Wars also continues flashing a feat through controlling multiple loud imageries amplified it’s vibrant main palette and even yet more three neon color accents. Even before receiving the main figure, this piece sustains interests the moment it was seen.

Locked on to the concept of remembrance, the symbolisms in this painting is by no means any less dense. Starting from the base the oblong shape is one of a time capsule, specifically the memories preservation type of one generation for the next. As such the striking accent colors were chosen to be the most vivid to be as memorable visually as the metaphorical counterpart; the times brought by liberating sounds of the particular summer. The latter is illustrated by the iconic cicada, which emerge every summer but will potentially become scarce to come by in the future thus as a result forgotten. To tie everything up, the little girl giddy for what she has on the vinyl expresses the legacy of a child’s memory.
