Cityscape Abstract (Escape from the City)

This painting stages a fevered architecture of memory, where thin white linear scaffolds rise like skeletal towers against a bruised field of ember-orange and soot-black. The composition is built on tension—vertical ascents and fractured planes hold their ground while translucent washes bleed and settle, suggesting time eroding certainty into atmosphere. Light behaves like a persistent inner flare rather than a natural source, carving fleeting corridors through the darkness and hinting at a city or mind under reconstruction. What remains is a quiet drama of aspiration and instability, as if structure itself is an act of hope drawn over turbulence.
