İmpossible Relationship (2023) Original Oil Painting by Gökhan Alpgiray

The wheat fields , carrying the melody of the wind , were shining like gold under the sun . It was one of those bright white summer days we know . The wooden doors of the houses looked like the faces of old men . The townspeople had retreated to their homes to protect themselves from the hot noon sun . At one point in this quiet environment , an unexpected encounter occurred : A cat and a fish . They were at the center of the oil painting . They were far from each other , but so close . It was like a dream to see the fish trying to swim in the nearby stream that was about to dry out due to the heat . Does this strange meeting , the moment of encounter between the cat and the fish , which belong to two opposite worlds , show that differences can come together on the border of harmony or discord , or does it indicate an impossible relationship ? I think the decision here should be left to the subjective perspective of the viewer ?
