Time does not forget; it lingers like a whisper in the stone. Struggles to Stay Alive transforms an ancient structure into a living memory, bearing the weight of centuries in its cracked arches. Layered exposures breathe life into the image, blurring the lines between past and present, as if the building itself is remembering, shifting, and dissolving with every breath.

Figures move beneath the weight of history, unaware of the echoes that linger in the stones above. The cool blue and parchment tones wrap the scene in a spectral stillness, suspended in the fragile moment between existence and erasure.

Created through a meticulous process of digital layering using multiple photographic exposures, this limited edition work is printed on museum-quality archival paper with archival ink. The original working file was flattened after completion, making this artwork a one-of-a-kind expression that cannot be recreated.
