the way we cope
$20.00
A clash of past and present, order and escape, this piece explores the tension between routine and rebellion. It juxtaposes a monochrome sea of uniformed, umbrella-clad figures against a sun-soaked, open-road dreamscape—highlighting the duality of structured existence and the urge for freedom.
Rough textures, chaotic typography, and distressed overlays add an unfiltered, raw energy to the piece, reinforcing its theme of coping mechanisms—whether through conformity, escapism, or sheer defiance. The scattered “X” markings and layered compositions further drive the fragmented yet deliberate storytelling.
