THIS TOO SHALL PASS (2023) – 100 CM X 75 CM – ACRYLIC PAINTING ON BOARD AND NEWSPAPER

“This Too Shall Pass” is part of a series of memento mori paintings inspired by a Victorian edition of The Times newspaper in England. Death, a common yet deeply feared occurrence in Western culture, underscores this artwork. The central premise of the piece reflects on the transient nature of life: everyone who once read that newspaper edition is now deceased. This stark realization serves as a poignant reminder for viewers to acknowledge and appreciate the fleeting moments of their existence.
