Lives (beyond the bridge), 2026, Ink, watercolour, oil pastel and pen on paper, 42,0 × 59,4 cm

In the summer of 2026, I lost a family member very suddenly. Perhaps no death is ever expected, but certain losses leave a profound sense of impermanence—a lingering regret and the quiet truth that, in the end, nothing in this world matters as much as we thought.

What human sin could possibly warrant this—that every single one of us must go through the process of death at least once in a lifetime? Where did we ‘actually’ come from, why are we here, and where are we going? When the body breaks down, where does it go, and was the soul ever really there?

Everything we clung to so fiercely shatters and scatters into dust, turning to nothingness. And as if to prove how meaningless it all was, the world looks exactly the same before and after it's gone.

I think of a fan spinning round and round. I picture the dust trapped between its blades.

We shared the watermelon sitting in my dad's fridge, the one he had bought but never got to eat.
