Nicosia, the last divided capital in the world. This painting depicts the weathered door of an abandoned house in Nicosia’s no-man’s-land, its cracked wood and faded paint telling stories of time and division. A young girl stands silently before it, her gaze fixed on the shadows within. The scene captures a poignant tension between innocence and decay, curiosity and loss. The abandoned house, frozen in history, contrasts with the girl’s vibrant presence, symbolizing hope and the longing to reconnect with places and stories left behind.
