Painting "Personal borders"
The high quality of canvas and paints is guaranteed. The canvas is stretched onto a wooden stretcher frame and is ready to hang on the wall. The surface of the painting is covered with a protective varnish. The size of the painting is 12 x 12 inches| 30 x 30 centimeters. 3D art (the frame is 5 cm). The painting is one-of-a- kind, hand-signed on the front and backside of the canvas.
About the idea
This artwork explores the intersection of personal and social boundaries. At its center is a human hand—an individual map created with a unique handprint and fingerprints. In palmistry, the lines on a palm are said to reveal one's destiny, yet here, the hand’s edges blur, reflecting the struggle to define personal limits. These boundaries are marked by a dotted line—tentative, uncertain, and ever-shifting.
The background, composed of geometric squares, resembles a fragmented world map viewed from above. This symbolizes the broader societal landscape, where boundaries—moral, physical, gendered, territorial—are constantly questioned and redefined. In today’s world, the idea of reclaiming lands is a recurring theme, yet history reveals that borders have always been in flux, changing hands across centuries.
The painting speaks to the challenge of setting boundaries in an ever-changing world. Rules and limitations can bring order, but they can also lead to stagnation or even dangerous ideologies. How does one find balance? That remains a deeply personal question—one each individual must answer for themselves.
