Dragonfruits and Ants in my Front Garden

CreatorZhou, Victor 
Date30th April 2020DescriptionSelf-isolation had led me to read more, my favourite reading place is next to my mother’s dragon fruit garden. Over weeks, the dragon fruits seemed stranger and more interesting to me, as they kept changing. I wanted to paint them, but I wanted to capture their intensity of life, how it kept growing, and dying. In my final artwork, the dragon fruits are ambiguous forms which seem to be flying forward and towards something with the ‘ants’ on top with them. I wonder what will happen after post-covid, I hope we become more with ecology.
