AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Abstract expressionism.
Rat race-sketch on canvas.
Pilot pen.
50×50cm.
1 of many more to come.
Hand signed.
Race is about breaking out of the cycle we’ve been told is life. We work to die, not to live, no matter how they try to sugar-coat it. For some, it’s the 9-to-5, Monday to Friday grind. For others, it’s even worse: messed up hours, no existence outside the job. Before you know it, you’re too old for anything, “retired,” and your prime has been spent earning someone else’s living.
I can’t be arsed with that. I’m done. This collection takes the endless spiral of the rat race and reshapes it into my own game. I’m not running the wheel anymore,I’m opening the cage. Each piece moves from darkness into light, from confinement into space, from routine into freedom. It’s about seeing life from a new angle, and realising the bars were never really locked.
