Carpet of Life II
Mixed Media on Canvas
The large-scale “Carpet of Life II” is a vivid, associative collage of the artist's life, created through a dynamic and intuitive process. Human figures of varying sizes emerge across the canvas, coming and going like scenes in a film. These figures are woven into a tapestry of everyday life, dreams, and memories, forming a complex narrative. Scribblings and sketches further enrich this emotionally charged work, contributing to its raw, expressive power. As the title suggests, the painting assembles fragments of a lifetime, piecing together moments and memories in a puzzle-like composition. Executed in mixed media on raw, unstretched canvas, the work hangs like a tapestry, its unbound edges adding to the sense of an ongoing, unfinished story.
