The painting represents my dream of nostalgia, which I have once in a while, and reminds me of the memory of youth, which I want to be mired in. Surrounding the younger version of me, who is sitting like a main character, are vibrant bubbles and people floating. The surreal elements portray a dreamlike atmosphere. The juxtaposition of my youthful self and the glimpse of my current face glancing over into a different world creates the connection between the present and the past.
