eMotions. Pain original oil painting Print

The painting 'eMotion. Pain' is the first of twelve paintings of the series. It depicts a girl with muscles stretched like strings. She is trying to escape from the state of pain. She has nothing to lean on, nothing to grab onto. Her legs sprawl and she nearly falls exhausted. This painting is about how physical and moral pain can run us down, destroy us. Pain suppresses, pain unbalances, pain makes us do stupid things. We come into the world through the pain of birth and leave it in pain. Can you live without pain? Is it possible to experience all the sensuality of life without experiencing pain? How to cope with severe pain that is exhausting? I experimented while painting "Pain". In the bottom layer, I used sawdust and glue. This helped me to create an unusual texture. The surface gave the effect of a mural on the canvas. Therefore, the image is a little ghostly. I managed to convey my impression of pain as a feeling that does not allow me to think soberly. It was an experiment that worked. The texture of the canvas is unique and can't be reproduced. I intended to say that the pain ends eventually. Sooner or later.
