Life Wheel 32

This pop-leaning composition turns a vintage automobile into a reflective vessel of memory, where the polished chrome and blue bodywork hold a compressed city inside the wheel’s circular aperture like a portal. The cool, simplified planes of color and the hard graphic edges amplify the sheen of manufactured nostalgia, while the tiny burst of a yellow taxi and dense street life puncture the calm surface with urgency and movement. By staging the metropolis as a reflection rather than a backdrop, the work suggests that urban experience is something we carry—spinning, recurring, and reframed by the machinery of personal history and modern desire.
