In this oil painting, l blend fine art with surrealism to confront historical atrocities. The vibrant red ground is a metaphor for the earth all over the world, soaked with human blood, shed in conflicts, wars and crimes throughout human history. Together with the flames in the back-ground, it creates an eerie atmosphere. In contrast, the vibrant blue sky evokes a peaceful everyday life, implying that such atrocious events are not something extraordinary, but something that ordinary people do as a matter of course. The depicted scene invites the viewer to reflect on the harsh realities of the past, while simultaneously challenging them to draw parallels with contemporary issues. The work is intended to evoke deep thoughts and emotions, and bringing these themes into the home encourages a space for introspective dialogue and historical reflec-tion.
