My mother passed away at the beginning of February 2021 during the pandemic. A big void is in my mind since that moment. I am in grief most of the time but art makes me smile and think she’ll be happy to see what’s new… I promised her that I would never stop making art. I cannot betray her promise.
With this self-portrait, I tried the best I could to represents how I feel about the death of my mom. I tried to put all the sadness that I have in me about her final sleep … I feel like something in me has died since she passed away but time will heal as they say.
I love you mom, you left us too quickly, I miss you very much. I promised you that I would never stop doing art and I'll keep my promise until my last breath. Rest in peace XXXX
