Mother by Louisa Wirawan in Jakarta

An acrylic piece from my personal collection; Mother” represents the intimate connection and complex relationship humans have with nature. Inspired by the slightly androgynous female figures of classical roman sculptures, the woman is nature personified- a nurturing entity that endures suffering but also thrives at human hands. a portrayal of the precarious dance humanity must do do for the environment to keep the balance: a balance kept as long as we take what we need and not any more, as long as we embrace an organic life alongside nature instead of developing society by destroying it
