Artwork 1 – Attention - STOP

This piece immediately draws attention with its familiar red “STOP” sign — a universal symbol of caution,juxtaposed with delicate flowers around it. The contrast between the language of traffic control and the language of mourning evokes powerful emotions. The flowers, often associated with memorials, subtly suggest the lives lost in traffic accidents. The message feels urgent yet tender: a call to “stop” not just vehicles, but carelessness, speed, and indifference.

Artwork 2 – Traffic Light with Red Signal

The red light here becomes a symbol of both danger and warning. The artist’s use of red against the dark, blurred background seems to capture the chaos and intensity of a collision. The repeated motif of flowers beneath the light again introduces the theme of remembrance, a reminder that behind every accident statistic lies a human story. The piece invites viewers to pause, to respect the signal, and to reflect on how simple acts of attention can save lives.

Artwork 3 – Seatbelt and Wreckage Installation

This combination of painting and installation — featuring car parts, a painted seatbelt, and red-marked tires — gives physical form to the tragedy of road accidents. The seatbelt, crossing over the canvas like a protective gesture, symbolizes both prevention and loss. The surrounding wreckage on the floor brings a raw, tangible reality to the exhibition: what was once movement and life has turned into stillness and metal. Together, the elements create a haunting reminder of responsibility, awareness, and the fragile boundary between safety and disaster.

Simple crosses, flowers, and candles marking places where lives have been lost. As the artist described, “the work is a reflection of how much loss goes unnoticed, how easily we go numb to it until it becomes personal.”
