Traces of Time

This mixed-media work explores the interplay between abstraction and figuration through layered textures, tonal transitions, and image fragments.

An ancient urban landscape emerges in the lower section, softly faded, evoking memory, time, and cultural heritage. The city appears suspended between presence and disappearance, resembling an archaeological trace or a distant recollection. At the top of the composition, a small symbolic and narrative graphic insert introduces mechanical and figurative elements, suggesting themes of construction, conflict, and the human condition.

The composition conveys a sense of fragmentation and continuity, where past and present coexist in delicate balance. The work invites an introspective reading, examining the relationship between space, memory, and identity through a restrained dialogue between structure and spontaneity.
