Maria Peña Under Control

Under Control

By María Peña

This piece draws its inspiration from Jack Goldingham’s writing. It portrays summer as an aspiration, a radiant moment that signifies leaving behind the harshness and adversity. However, in Afghanistan, they remain trapped in the enduring winter of war, which lingers in people’s memories and occasionally obstructs their ability to embark on a new path.

2020 – Mixed media on canvas
