Tempus Fugit

Description

Created for QUA - Quattordio Urban Art

This mural is a visual allegory of time that consumes everything, inspired by the concept of Chronos, the mythological personification of time,

The work represents Chronos not in his traditional iconography, but with a humanized and everyday presence: a colossal hand that descends from above, in the act of choosing or consuming food from a bowl. The diamonds represent the importance of time and matter and the act of eating here becomes a visual metaphor for the consumption and deterioration of everything, as time passes.

The work invites us to reflect on the present moment, on the urgency of living and on the acceptance of the end. "Tempus Fugit" is not only a warning, but a celebration of time as a creative and destructiveforce, in a continuous balance between beauty and loss.
