About the artwork
This work is an exploration of the infinite potential that lies within each of us. It represents the vast landscape of our lives, where countless possibilities branch out from every decision and experience. The piece investigates the essence of both our realised choices, forming the oasis of our present, and the unrealised paths that shimmer on the periphery, representing the futures we could have had and the ones that may yet unfold.
