Between Life and Death: Life begins where it ends and ends where it begins
Between Life and Death: Life begins where it ends and ends where it begins
My father expired on 13-Jan-2012 while my daughter was born a few months earlier on 17th Aug 2011.
This painting depicts the stage of my life when I was between life and death. A new life that was born in the form of my daughter while an old life that was lost in the form of my father.
Painting description:
I have portrayed it in the way as below:
I am putting fire to my father’s pyre. And my small daughter Tini is pulling my fingers from behind. While my father’s death brings loss of hope, my daughter born just five months back brings hope to my life. And I was between life and death. During this period, I once said my daughter when she was a newborn and cuddling her and trying to put her to sleep 'You are lucky you have a father, while I have lost mine'.
