Life is Precious and should be Fought For

This painting is a response to the recent events unfolding across the world, reflecting the devastation and destruction that conflict brings to people's lives. It captures the harsh reality of lives being shattered and trampled upon without hesitation or regard. In the background, I’ve incorporated the text ‘DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT,’ a powerful quote from Dylan Thomas’s poem, to emphasize the defiance and resilience in the face of darkness. The juxtaposition of this text against the imagery speaks to the struggle for survival and the refusal to surrender in times of despair.
