This Day is the Life II

Charcoal on papel, 30 x 40 cm.

This day is life for me, and all of the rest as well, the same. This series speaks of the circularity of everyday days and how in every action we perform, there is light, but also shadow. Thus, each day comes with light to remind us that it begins. The further I go, and as the day progresses, the more shadows are there; inside and outside.

Then I walk back, turn off all the lights, and the ones outside go out; it’s already night. Ending the day. It seems that the shadows no longer follow me on the way home because there is no more light. Could that be the reason why?

Wishing for it to end. Only then do I find calm, in the darkness, but with hope placed again in tomorrow, when it begins anew. They always follow one another, day and night like a wheel, like the lights and shadows within me.
