More about I am not a White Rabbit but Nevertheless I am Late!

A surrealist painting featuring a man racing on a bicycle with a massive clock on his back, symbolizing the pressure of time. The vibrant pink and purple backdrop, along with flowing, dreamlike clouds, adds a whimsical element to the scene, reflecting the absurdity of time’s relentless chase.

Artistic Statement: This piece combines surrealism with humor, addressing the universal feeling of being pressed for time. Inspired by both the rush of modern life and the whimsical escapism of "Alice in Wonderland," the painting contrasts the heaviness of time with a dreamlike landscape. The cyclist, bearing the weight of the clock, suggests the perpetual race against time, while the colorful, playful environment softens the intensity. The exaggerated proportions and distorted reality are reminiscent of surrealists like Salvador Dalí, while the humorous tone evokes René Magritte’s playful use of imagery.
