“Lake Flamingo" is a representation of the future. This circular painting depicts a seemingly idyllic landscape, with a tranquil lake surrounded by lush hills. However, the image is distorted by a fisheye lens, creating a sense of unease and uncertainty. The focal point of the painting is a giant plastic inflatable flamingo floating in the lake. This playful object, typically associated with childhood memories and fun, contrasts starkly with the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. The painting serves as a cautionary tale, reminding the viewer of the impact that human activities can have on the environment and wildlife. By using the fisheye lens to warp the image, the artist invites the viewer to see the world from a different perspective and to consider the consequences of our actions.
