Morning - Edward Hopper 

 

Desolate, bleak and barren yet serene, the aura of Hopper's works imparts the general image of

isolation, desolation, disconnection, and tranquil stillness as if the time is frozen in frame,

yet full of subtle tension as if the objects in the pics are captured in there against their will...

 

Quite unlike his contemporary Norman Rockwell who liked to paint the happy and innocently comic faces of life,

Edward Hopper was intuitively insightful about the lethargic pathos of life

stemming from the meaningless lassitude...


Even the bright morning glow, which would normally be a metaphor for dawn of the new hope,

becomes a strong language of helpless loneliness and desolation...

just like the current state of mind I'm in...
