“Big Apple Mirage” is my attempt to capture the pulsating energy of a big city, where architecture becomes part of the constant motion and change. Using impasto, I applied thick strokes of paint, creating textured layers that reflect the chaos yet harmony of the urban scene. The buildings seem to dissolve into the mist, leaving behind only flashes of color and light. I aimed to convey that feeling—when the city feels alive, breathing and shimmering on the horizon, almost like a mirage that’s about to disappear.
