“The warm glow of late afternoon light has always evoked a sense of nostalgia for me—something I sought to capture in this piece. I was inspired by old photographs from my childhood, playing in the garden for hours on end. This rusty old table and chairs were a substantial part of many hectic games my sister and I created as a child, a silent witness to our chaos. Although I can still hear the echoes of our uproarious noises from those memories, internally I feel an immense sense of peace and stillness when I think back to those moments, a quiet calm that feels rare in adulthood.”
