Meditation, Kelly Jung



"Meditation" by Kelly Jung


This art depicts the theme of 'Hope in Times of Despair'. Its dark background and the harsh brush strokes imply the moments of despair that human beings face in life. However, the colorful figures in the painting imply the hope that still exists in everyone's life. Even when the most desperate moment approaches, human beings have the determination to go through that hopelessness. The meditating figures imply that people seek different ways in life to go through the hardships. Also, the contrast of the colors in the painting is one of the methods to draw a contrast between the hope and despair that coexists.
