Inspired by one of my favourite paintings „Shores of Oblivion“ by Eugen Bracht. Whose intention was to paint a more dystopian view of mankind. The last remains of society we see are human skulls washed ashore in the midst of a rough landscape without any life remaining. A Landscape where humanity has come to an end. I personally am more optimistic. I believe that we shall overcome the challenges we are presently confronting, making peace with our past honouring our ancestors. And finally walking on higher grounds, more conscious of our selves and aware of the paths we take into a bright and magical future.
