A Taste of Time

“A Taste of Time” is an oil painting that speaks on the fleeting nature of sensory experiences and the relentless progression of time. The painting juxtaposes the immediacy of taste, represented by the lips and tongue, alongside a clock face. The absence of clock hands emphasizes that while moments may be savoured, they are ultimately consumed by time’s unyielding flow. This piece invites viewers to reflect on the temporary joys of life and the preciousness of each moment.
