Meaning
Last Piece was started during the last period of my life with Barnis, my dog, and finished after his passing. In that sense, the painting became difficult to complete, not because of the image itself, but because of everything that stayed inside it. I kept changing it, repainting parts of it, returning to it and leaving it again. It felt like I was collecting the last small pieces of a world where he still existed.
The figure stands in a space between presence and absence, carrying a quiet tension between holding on and letting go. The moon, the dark body, the exposed face and the repeated shapes on the lower part of the painting became fragments of that state. Not a direct portrait of grief, but a painting made through it.
It is a work about finishing something after the world has changed. About the strange intimacy of objects, colors and unfinished surfaces that still remember what we have lost. And about the moment when a painting has to be released, even if something in it still wants to stay.
