This piece is a reflection on time—how it moves, fades, and leaves its mark. Inspired by The Monument Game by Sam Spratt and its exploration of memory and legacy, I painted my own hand holding a skull. Not to recreate an image, but to express something deeply personal.
I’ve spent time close to death. That experience changes how you see the world, how you measure time, and what you choose to hold onto. The marks creeping up the wrist are a sign of that change—like time itself taking hold, like something seeping in, altering, possessing. A reminder that nothing stays untouched.*
