Original artwork description
"The Weight of Freedom" - 2025
This surreal painting explores the delicate balance between security and freedom, choice and destiny. On one side of the scale, a nest with three eggs symbolizes safety, potential, and the warmth of the familiar. On the other, a single egg sits confined in a golden cage—protected, yet isolated. The contrast highlights a fundamental human dilemma: do we embrace the comfort of the known, or do we risk isolation in pursuit of absolute freedom?
The painting invites the viewer to reflect on their own perceptions of security and freedom and where they find balance between the two.
