Original artwork description:

The oil painting on canvas depicts a portrayal of an environmentalist or maintenance worker confronting the aftermath of industrial devastation. Distressed surfaces—thick, scraped layers of pigment and muted, oily tones—mirror the physical and emotional strain of those tasked with restoring what has been damaged. The figure, marked by enduring exhaustion, his movements heavy with purpose -not idealised hero, but weary custodian engaged in the grim, necessary labor of cleaning and containing contamination of a natural environment.
I wanted to pay tribute to the quiet resilience of those who confront the kind of work—individuals doing a dirty job with dignity, working on a practical level to reclaim a wounded world.
