Limbo
Acrylic pour on canvas
April 2019
“Limbo” is a visual representation of the emotional and psychological state of being stuck between two worlds, unsure of where one truly belongs. Through the technique of acrylic pouring, the painting exudes a sense of fluidity and uncontrollability, mirroring the internal struggle with the uncertainty of identity and place. The colors, ranging from deep, earthy tones to fiery reds and soft yellows, evoke the emotional turbulence of navigating the in-between—a space where nothing feels fixed, and everything appears to be slipping away.
The swirling patterns create a dynamic sense of movement, reflecting the effort to grasp at clarity in a world that seems to melt and shift beyond comprehension. The composition captures a sense of disorientation, as though time and space are blending together, leaving no clear path forward or backward. “Limbo” explores the discomfort of being suspended in uncertainty, where attempts to define oneself or one’s place feel futile, and the boundaries of reality seem to dissolve.
This painting invites viewers to sit with their own feelings of disconnection and ambiguity, challenging them to embrace the unease of not knowing. It serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty and complexity in the moments when life feels unmoored, urging us to reflect on the transient, ever-changing nature of existence.
