My idea was that during the pandemic it felt like I was constantly stuck in a time loop. We were all stuck at home at that time. Thus starting from the beginning of the year, we had no choice but to take online classes. So since then, I was always in my room the whole day. Thus the painting shows a scene within my bedroom.
At that time, as we were always stuck in front of my laptop doing work, time seems to lose meaning and pass by very quickly. Every day was like a time loop where I was doing the same thing every day. Aside from that, during this pandemic, I was always using technologies a lot, especially my phone, where I use a lot of different apps. It was like being stuck between constantly working in front of my laptop and using my phone. This was my idea behind the painting.
