Flight
Project type
Oil Painting
Can we escape time as we understand it? Our concept of time is a collective agreement. We have agreed that the present moment is a point in a series of numbers on a circular ticking device, and this understanding extends to weeks, months, and years - constructs of human invention. Does this agreement limit us in some way? We often expect major life events - graduating from high school, attending college, starting a career, getting married, buying a house - at specific points in our life’s timeline. But why? Is it possible to escape from this framework? “Flight” suggests that liberation from the constraints of time is possible. The hawks symbolize freedom soaring beyond a chain of clocks.
