This series is a curated collection of oil paintings that captures the vibrant moments of childhood while juxtaposing them with the complexities of adulthood. It marks my debut solo gallery exhibition and serves as a reflection on the evolution from the innocence of youth to the nuanced experiences of growing up. Through these works, I delve into the challenges, discomforts, and emotional pains associated with becoming a young adult, all the while expressing a deep yearning for the simple joys and comforting ignorance of childhood.

By integrating specific childhood memories with artifacts and physical elements from my past, I aim to convey these emotions vividly. This series represents both a farewell to my youthful self and a transition into a new chapter of my artistic journey. It embodies a process of reconciling with my past to forge a path forward, as I reinterpret and re-imagine intimate childhood moments in my evolving artistic practice.
