About the Item

"Negotiating with Time" is a stunning artwork that reflects the challenges and opportunities of time. Created by the contemporary artist, Aba Linus, this piece invites viewers to contemplate the complex relationship between time and human existence. The painting features a striking human in bold colors, evocative of Linus's signature style. The colors used in the artwork are bright and vibrant, creating a sense of energy and vitality. The painting suggests that time is not something static, but rather a dynamic force that is constantly changing and evolving. The title of the painting, "Negotiating with Time," is significant. It implies that time is not something that can be controlled or dominated, but rather something that must be approached with respect and humility. The painting reminds us that time is a valuable resource, and that it is up to us to use it wisely. The painting can be interpreted as opportunities that are constantly presented to us, and it is up to us to seize them before they slip away. The painting also prompts us to reflect on the transience of life. The white on the face that make up the composition are reminiscent of cells, suggesting that all things are interconnected and in a state of constant flux. The painting reminds us that life is fleeting, and that we must make the most of our time on earth. Linus's use of color is particularly striking in this artwork. The bright colors suggest a sense of optimism and hope, while the bold lines and shapes create a sense of dynamism and movement. The painting suggests that time is not something to be feared, but rather a force that can be harnessed and used for positive change. In conclusion, "Negotiating with Time" is a powerful artwork that invites viewers to contemplate the challenges and opportunities of time. Through its bold colors and dynamic composition, the painting reminds us of the transience of life and the importance of making the most of our time on earth. It encourages us to approach time with respect and humility, and to seize the opportunities that are presented to us. This artwork is a testament to Linus's unique vision and his ability to capture the complexity of the human experience in his art.

ART STATEMENT My paintings stem from my encounter with human society and the psychology that affects our daily encounters with matter, time, and spaçe. With the use of the acrylic medium- I try to paint images that express basic and necessary Elements of the human experience. Working through a variety of themes- oppression, depression, Loneliness, Love, All gravitating towards figurative abstract realism. I see my painting as an observation and a means of offering an open-ended discussion. As they are not intended to answer any question or intended to change human behavior.
