Meaning:
The Last Days of Babylon explores the fragile space between love and adversity — a reflection on two souls navigating a world filled with conflict, judgment,and emotional storms.
The figures are portrayed as a sanctuary for one another, with protective hands symbolizing devotion, shelter, and the human desire to shield those we lovefrom suffering. Their wounds and fractured textures represent the invisible scars left by hardship, while the flowers emerging throughout the compositionsymbolize renewal, healing, and the possibility of beauty growing from pain.
Above the woman’s head, the flowers are arranged in the form of a celestial constellation inspired by her birth — a symbol of identity, destiny, and theuniqueness of every human existence. It represents the idea that even through moments of darkness, every individual carries an inner universe of value andlight.
The surrounding darkness represents “Babylon” — not as a physical place, but as a metaphor for systems, pressures, and forces that challenge humanconnection. Yet, within that darkness, life continues to bloom. The artwork becomes a meditation on resilience: the belief that love, compassion, and hope cantransform suffering into a new beginning.
Through surrealism, the artist merges personal experience with universal symbolism, creating a visual narrative about endurance, protection, and thehuman capacity to heal.
