Description
You can count on me – This artwork explores the deep interconnection between the external environment and the inner world of human experience. It reflects on the complexities of the human condition—our contradictions, challenges, and the profound impact of outside influences. Through its composition and storytelling, it encourages a shift in perspective to appreciate the greatness found in everyday life.
The painting blends realistic forms with intuitive application, using techniques such as wet-on-wet layering and thin layers of paint to create a balance between precision and fluidity. The interplay of form and color invites viewers to perceive the world through a different lens, highlighting unity amidst diversity.
Inspired by Sophea’s modern landscape, You Can Count on Me centers on community and celebrates acts of greatness that often go unnoticed. It honors the grandmother who nurtures her grandchildren so her daughter can pursue education and the single father who balances the roles of protector and caregiver.
The message of this piece is that greatness exists in the simplest moments and forms. By shifting perspectives and recognizing these acts of quiet strength, the boundaries of understanding and appreciation expand, opening new possibilities for connection and growth.
