About this artwork
The artwork "Everything all at once" captures a myriad of emotions, reminiscent of the moment I first opened my eyes after leaving my mother's womb and beholding the world. I recall the sensation of coldness rather than warmth. It symbolizes the delicate equilibrium between opposing forces like yin and yang, life and death, chaos and peace. As I navigate through the linear progression of time, I observe with my soul and mourn the passing of precious moments, time and people. Please be advised that lighting changes the tone of the painting. I did not have the best light to reflect it perfectly.

About the artist
Maii, a socially anxious artist, has traversed a tumultuous journey through life, marked by numerous losses, moments of profound self-reflection, and overwhelming grief. These experiences have shaped their perspective, leaving them perplexed by the intricate workings of society and its often bewildering norms. Yet, amidst the chaos, Maii harbours a burning desire to express their enigmatic and distinctive nature through their art and personality. As the seasons change, Maii finds themselves grappling with the weight of seasonal depression, which casts a somber hue over their world. The gloomy atmosphere becomes a constant companion, seeping into their thoughts and coloring their artistic creations. However, rather than succumbing to the darkness, Maii harnesses it as a wellspring of inspiration, channelling their emotions onto the canvas with raw intensity. Drawing inspiration from the works of renowned artists such as Banksy, Picasso, and Basquiat, Maii's artistic style emerges as a mesmerizing blend of semi-figurative elements. Their pieces often feature distorted human forms, capturing the essence of the human condition and the complexities of the mind. Through their art, they seek to unravel the enigma of existence, inviting viewers to delve into the depths of their own emotions and introspection. Maii's semi-figurative style allows them to strike a delicate balance between abstraction and representation. They skillfully use lines, shapes, and colors to convey the essence of their emotive essence, blurring the boundaries between reality and imagination. Their figures, though recognizable, possess an otherworldly quality, as if they exist in a realm beyond the tangible. In their quest to express their distinctive nature, Maii's art becomes a reflection of their own inner world. Each stroke of the brush or pencil is imbued with their emotion, creating a visual language that speaks volumes about their experiences and struggles. Through their art, they find solace and a means to communicate their deepest thoughts and feelings, transcending the limitations of their social anxiety.
