Painting: Wake Within
"Have we asked our hearts and souls about the war raging inside us?
Are we aware that we are arguing inside and out our minds?"
Wake Within
Mix Media (Oil, Acrylic, Shattered Mirror) on 16"x24 wood
This piece came from the idea of self-awareness and realization.
A paradox of reflection in real world and in our fantasies.
We often dream about ourselves as successful individuals, the person we always want to be. But are we really happy? Deep inside our head, we always want to see ourselves contented for what we are but we crave for more and more. We want the people around to accept us, but we are not being ourselves.
We live in a reality where we want to be loved and be showered in affection and attention, but we cannot really be ourselves.
We are not contented.
Are you really accepted by yourself?
Have we asked our hearts and souls about the war raging inside us?
Are we aware that we are arguing inside and out our minds?
