Dissatisfaction | Woodcut | 32'"x24"
Artist's note
My artworks are like visual stories that reflect my personal journey and the complex emotions that shape who I am. In my captivating print called "Dissatisfaction," I wanted to show the inner struggle we feel when we interact with the outside world. I used shades of black and white to represent the darkness that surrounds us, but I also included a bright joyful scenario through a window to show glimpses of happiness in others' lives. The cactus in the artwork is a powerful symbol that represents both the sad parts of life and the unbreakable love that stays strong even in tough times. It reminds us that life can be challenging, but love and resilience can help us overcome any adversity we face.
