ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Lonely mother crying while wiping dust in the nursery, sitting on a chair and cleaning up the room of her child every day. She would like to escape, but she will never do this. How many mothers abandoned their career and their dreams to stay with their children. She decided to be a good mother, she loves her child and hardly tries to be happy with the family life, but deep inside she knows well that she is not as happy as she would like to be. She is ashamed that she is feeling lonely, missing her freedom and her own life, because she was learned to accept her responsibilities and traditional woman´s role. Why is she not as happy as it is generally expected from the mother? Instead of living her dreams she cleans up shards of the games of her children. Instead of travelling around the world she is waiting obediently at home, so she would always be there for her child. Where should be a boundary between motherliness and thinking about herself, her dreams, and needs? Where is the boundary between selfishness and self-preservation? Acrylic Painting on Plywood, Signed, Prepared for Framing.
