Bridge over Troubled Road

2020 / Watercolour Drawing Study / Watercolour, Graphite and Conté on paper / 29,7 x 42 cm

‘The painting is about keeping the faith in troubled times, about dreams and moving against the flow. The bridge of light flows from one place of silence (Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, NYC) towards another source of silence, nature (Central Park, NYC). It is a bridge of contemplation and silence with hectic daily life rushing beneath it. The painting is also inspired by the song I really love, ‘Bridge over Troubled Water’ by Simon and Garfunkel.’
