CAREFREE

This mixed media street art work ‘CAREFREE’, depicts two boys running into the sea together. Their figures are simple silhouettes, emphasising the purity of the moment.
The sea and sky are rendered to blend into each other, creating an unbroken horizon that suggests the vastness of the scene. Instead of a traditional seascape, the water and sky are composed of strips that resemble old, weathered boat wood, with layers of peeling paint revealing the wood underneath.
The texture of the wood adds an aged look to the work and alludes to the passage of time and the stories the sea carries.
