Echoes of Time: The Aging Trilogy, 150cmx100cm - the artist ingeniously captures the passage of three fleeting moments in the old man's life, each frozen in time down to the seconds. Through the technique of double lines, the transitions between these temporal snapshots are rendered with remarkable clarity and precision. As the viewer beholds the triptych, they witness the ephemeral nature of existence distilled into three distinct scenes, each resonating with its own unique energy and emotion. The aura emanating from the figure transcends mere physical presence, imbuing the artwork with a profound sense of temporal transcendence.
