我想起了一个画家朋友，他通过描绘了生活中的场景，主要是荒芜的房间，废弃的房屋和遗弃的妇女照片，从而开始了自己的职业生涯。逐渐地，她的作品变得更加抽象，在她的上一次展览中，她的画作是叛逆的颜色的飞溅，就像我客厅里的两个，黑暗的斑块，蓝色的小滴。我问她从现代现实主义到抽象的进步。她说，现实变得如此令人无法忍受，以至于我现在可以绘制的只是我梦dream以求的颜色。
(I was reminded of a painter friend who had started her career by depicting scenes from life, mainly deserted rooms, abandoned houses and discarded photographs of women. Gradually, her work became more abstract, and in her last exhibition, her paintings were splashes of rebellious color, like the two in my living room, dark patches with little droplets of blue. I asked about her progress from modern realism to abstraction. Reality has become so intolerable, she said, so bleak, that all I can paint now are the colors of my dreams.)
反思描述了一位画家，他最初专注于荒凉的环境和被遗忘的记忆的现实描述，例如空房间和遗弃的女性图像。随着时间的流逝，她的艺术品发展为抽象，最终以充满活力和叛逆的色彩与她早期的主题形成鲜明对比。她的转变突显了从描绘生活的苛刻现实到通过她的艺术表达更具想象力和充满希望的愿景的旅程。
当被问及她的风格变化时，画家解释说，现实的压倒性黯淡驱动了她的创造性转变。她发现与周围的鲜明互动越来越困难，使她逃脱了梦想的颜色。这个观念强调了一个更广泛的主题，即艺术如何从生活的无法忍受的方面充当庇护所，从而使个人表达并瞥见更丰富多彩的内心世界。
