Impermanence

Impermanence

'Nothing is absolute. Everything changes, everything moves, everything revolves, everything flies and goes away.' - Frida Kahlo

This piece, inspired by Frida Kahlo, immerses the viewer in a landscape where the transient nature of existence is palpable. A skeletal figure, reminiscent of her self-portraits, rests amidst a desert, echoing the stark yet vibrant tones of a Mexican landscape. Surrounding it are symbols of life and its fleetingness—a wheelchair suggesting both mobility and constraint, cacti signifying resilience, and scattered stones marking the passage of time. All under the gaze of a skull, a poignant reminder of mortality and the continuous cycle of life. This artwork reflects Kahlo's embrace of change and the beauty of impermanence that defines our existence.
