Details:

The Sunday Blues is a series of reduced and blue-saturated paintings that create a nocturnal atmosphere through diffused and faded light. The artworks reflect the period at the end of Sundays when joy dissipates, rest becomes uncomfortable, light fades away, and the anguish of anticipating the upcoming Monday sets in. Based on photographic images from the artist's archives, the paintings poetically document everyday life and its fissures.
