Lying at the edge of the lake, he seems suspended in his own sky.
Eyes fixed on his screen, a delicate rose rests in a dented bucket, like a forgotten message.
Above him, a seagull cuts through the air with a sharp wingbeat —
a small reminder that life, the breeze, and signs keep moving.
In this pause between sky, water, and earth, the question quietly floats:
What really matters?

With WHAT MATTERS IS, I wanted to capture the fragile intersection between the outer world and inner searching.
The man, absorbed in his phone, is both anchored and adrift — present at the lakeside, absent from the moment.
The wrapped rose, the metal bucket, the passing seagull all whisper of waiting, of hope perhaps, or simple distraction.
The tight framing and interplay between realism and suggestion invite the viewer to read between the lines of an everyday scene, uncovering hidden poetry.
This painting has been awarded multiple prizes for its subtle narrative tension and emotional resonance.
