Oil on canvas
162.2 x 130.3 cmApocalypse conjures up images of catastrophe, like the end of the world, but its etymology includes revealing the hidden, and exposing secrets. This painting is a representation of the heart as it is, as if the grease on the heart has been apocalysed off with a skimmer, lifting the veil of a ravaged mind. My focus was on exploring contemporary emotional states such as depression and anxiety, potential future scenarios, and historical and symbolic concepts of apocalypse.
