ARTWORK MEDIUM: Watercolor
DETAILS: The artwork explores the contrast between outward perception and inner reality. The mirror reflects a seemingly perfect past—immaculate shoes, a vibrant atmosphere—yet the distorted colors and unsettling details hint at the illusion. Outside the mirror, the worn shoes and eerie surroundings reveal the truth: the mask has fallen, and what once appeared ideal was never real. The foxglove, a beautiful yet poisonous flower, symbolizes the deceptive nature of this past image—something admired yet dangerous. The mismatched clock reinforce the idea that this illusion was never grounded in reality, emphasizing the theme of lost time and self-perception.
