Original artwork description:

At first glance, the work appears abstract, almost chaotic. But upon closer inspection, the image of a female body begins to emerge—implicit, vaguely outlined, as if seen in a memory or a dream. The figure exists, yet at the same time, it doesn't; it dissolves, disappearing in the tension between darkness and light.

The rough, sharp strokes on the canvas act as a metaphor for how time erases the details of the past. The coarse, uneven texture intensifies this sense of disintegration. The palette knife strokes don't merely erase; they tear and distort the image, preventing it from solidifying.

Thus, the work becomes a unique reflection on the nature of memory, time, and human existence, and the impossibility of fully retaining the past.
