About this artwork+
In the painting titled "Regress," a large, architectural wooden structure dominates the scene, evocative of a construction site or an unfinished building. It possesses a rickety and strong appearance, with big metal bolts and a textural, weathered wood surface. Positioned prominently at the foreground is a dramatic and poignant crown of thorns, laid upon a raggedly sculpted, stone-like skull. This crown, interspersed with spikes and barbed wire, rests on what seems to be a nest built atop the skull, hinting at themes of pain, struggle or martyrdom. The background, softened in a muted ochre and gray, shows an expansive landscape of uniform, monotonous buildings that stretch endlessly, giving a bleak and oppressive atmosphere to the setting. It feels dystopian—almost as if the cityscape stands as a stark contrast to the organic, pain-laden imagery in the foreground. The painting evokes a sense of decay and contemplation on human suffering, intermingled with motifs of industrialization and urban sprawl.
