Surreal painting of a young man in a dark ocean reaching towards two inverted, older faces in a mirrored sky above.

A surreal, dramatic painting. A young man struggles to float in a vast, endless ocean, his body half-submerged, one arm desperately reaching upward out of the water. Above him in the sky is an inverted ocean, perfectly mirroring the sea below. From this upside-down ocean, another version of himself emerges, reaching downward toward the younger man’s hand. The figure above is older, slightly distorted and blurry around the body, but his face is sharply detailed and clear. The two hands almost touch, symbolizing connection across time and self. The lighting is moody and atmospheric, emphasizing the tension and hope between the mirrored figures. See more
