This is the third piece in a series of works that holds deep personal meaning for me. It includes a series of three paintings centered around my adopted father. In these precious moments at home, I remember him telling me his stories while relaxing outdoors with us after a day of household chores. During these times, he would share heartfelt stories, warming our nights and making these moments truly unforgettable.
The series further explores his life, depicting scenes of him creating prosthetics in his workshop. These works reflect the stories he shared with me about losing his legs, his time in the military, the dreams he once had for the future, and his resilient attitude toward life after the loss. Together, these pieces pay tribute to his strength, dreams, past, and his journey toward acceptance

Where Myth Meets Reality

This painting imagines a mythical transformation of the Aldabra Islands through the arrival of a Chinese dragon, crafted for a competition that invited artists to envision such a dragon in their own country. My creation encircles the Aldabra atoll with the majestic dragon, intertwining it with key symbols of the islands’ heritage. Prominently featured are the iconic giant tortoises, symbolizing longevity and resilience. Adding a touch of historical allure, a pirate ship sails on the horizon, conjuring images of seafaring legends and past exploits. Below the translucent waters, the outline of the atoll is visible, blending the island’s underwater mystique with its surface narrative. This artwork merges myth with the rich natural and historical tapestry of Aldabra, creating a captivating visual story.
