Black Swan Theory Painting

Nassim Taleb's theory of the Black Swan as a key event in life is a very original point of view. The new reality shocks us and entails little unexpected consequences. You need to be constantly ready for some key moment, be able to launch the necessary mechanisms and in time to rebuild your attitude to the world in accordance with the changed conditions. I agree with Taleb in many ways, and I think that his theory is actually useful knowledge. However, according to the law of the human factor, the opposite happens very often. This is what my picture is about. You are carried along the waves of the ocean of hope on a random object. The stars have already lined up in the patterns of your destiny, and you look at the world with cautious eyes and do not understand what is really happening. I can't say what exactly gave me the idea to create such a work. There are always videos on the network about how someone was carried off into the sea on an inflatable toy. On the other hand, in each such story there is a unique magic of the unknown. A person finds himself alone with the universe and seems to be watching a movie about himself, and only God knows what will happen next.
