Abstract Acrylic Painting
"Mapping Pleasure" is a captivating abstract painting that visualizes data collected over two distinct 50-day periods during the summers of 2023 and 2024. This artwork serves as a comparative study of the artist's everyday life, contrasting the experience of being full-time employed in 2023 with the freedom of being a freelancer in 2024. Through a dynamic interplay of colors, shapes, and textures, the painting offers a poignant commentary on how capitalist structures shape our perceptions of success, prosperity, and happiness. The composition serves as a map, meticulously color-coded and structured according to the data collected over 100 days, offering a visual timeline of the artist's experiences and emotions. In the 2023 segment, the painting is dominated by rigid forms and muted tones, reflecting the artist's experience of long working hours in shades of grey. The pursuit of financial and professional stability leads to burnout, leaving little time for the activities that bring true pleasure. Life is depicted as a series of repetitive, mechanical actions, underscored by a stark absence of joy and creativity. Conversely, the 2024 segment bursts with vibrant colors and fluid forms, symbolizing the artist's shift towards activities that genuinely bring joy and fulfillment. Freed from the constraints of a 9-to-5 job, she delves into travelling, painting, writing, praying, working out and spending time with her loved ones. This part of the painting exudes a sense of liberation and contentment, celebrating the intrinsic value of pursuing one's passions over materialistic pursuits.
