The painting is based on the imaginary interview with Vincent Van Gogh who is standing in front of his sunflowers. His answer to the question "How does it feel to be famous Mr Van Gogh" can be seen at the bottom of the painting. Melinda says: "I saw the Van Gogh exhibition a while ago in London. It was amazing though I left the show with sadness inside. I saw huge masses of people crowded around some of his paintings, there were so many people that it was impossible to get closer and have a look. On the walls there were fragments of articles written in a grandiose style arguing about Van Gogh's style... whether it was formed in London or Paris? This made me sad. The painting was born out of reflections on human failure to value life in 'real time'.

-Melinda is based in London. Her work focuses on philosophical and empirical questions emerging out of human experience, both individual and collective. Her main focus is the human condition and one's internal world one experiences amidst the expectations of society. She is interested in the present and the past, her paintings explore different points of view on existence. -Experimenting with colour is important in her creative process, as well as partially deconstructing the forms which allows her to find an equilibrium between figuration and abstraction. -Melinda was born as an ethnic Hungarian in Transylvania (Romania) in 1976 under the communist regime, and as a teenager she witnessed the sudden uprising of the people, which eventually ended it. She found the transition between the silent acceptance into the outburst of desire for freedom fascinating. Later this brought up Melinda’s interest in Psychology. -In 2009 she graduated from the University of Art and Design, Cluj receiving her BA in Fine Art, Painting. -In 2013 she moved to England.
