Description: "Future Fragments" is an acrylic painting on canvas, 120 x 160 cm, that presents a vision of humanity's potential future if cycles of conflict and violence persist. Central to the composition are three tormentors and a slaughtered pig, emblematic of humanity's primal struggle amidst famine and societal collapse. A little girl in white, clutching crimson balloons filled with skulls, personifies the fragile innocence of childhood under the shadow of war. Dark silhouettes of soldiers, stripped of humanity, direct their violence toward little girl, epitomizing the cruelty of conscience-less aggression. Around is a burning city, scattered landmines, skeletal remains, and heaps of skulls create a tableau of chaos and despair. Indifferent onlookers in the distance reflect humanity’s apathy in the face of suffering. Amidst this devastation sits a meditating Zen master, embodying the potential for peace, mindfulness, and resilience, even in the most fractured of worlds. This figure offers not an escape, but a reminder of the path to harmony through self-awareness and compassion. The painting serves as both a warning and a call to reflection on the repercussions of unchecked conflict and the enduring possibility of inner peace.
