DESCRIPTION
The painting Absence speeks of longing, emptiness, and the emotional void we carry within us.
 
A solitary chair symbolizes a place in each of our hearts — for someone who has already left, or for someone we’re still waiting for.
 
The light does not illuminate the darkness — it reveals it.
 
And yet, it compels us to keep watching — maybe someone is about to arrive? Or perhaps I am the absence in someone else's life?
