Artist about this artwork The painting "Speed" offers a whimsical juxtaposition: a snail leisurely positioned atop a miniature steam locomotive. It's undeniable that our era is synonymous with velocity. To save precious time, air travel has become the go-to choice for swift long-distance journeys, relegating trains and steamers to a realm of nostalgia and romanticism.
Back in the early days of passenger trains, there was genuine concern about whether occupants hurtling along at 60 km/h might succumb to a kind of locomotive-induced madness. Now, such speeds are considered the epitome of comfortable and secure urban transit. Our ceaseless quest to stretch the hours or encompass boundless experiences echoes the snail's whimsical yearning for breakneck velocities, as it perches on an antiquated toy train, unbound by tracks and destined for nowhere.
