About the series

"Home [Absence] Home"

I'm not certain if I can return home on time, as ignoring the concept of home has become habitual for me. Through my series "Home [Absence] Home" I aim to convey the cold and numb psychological state I've developed. This is to confront the reasons for my resistance to going back home and to dismantle the barriers that obstruct my journey home.

My pride and ego, in wanting to carry a home with me, are so strong that sometimes, when I miss home, I must give in and grab a cup of noodles from the Mogok Noodle shop, just two blocks away from my current place in Yangon, to continue my journey. It doesn't offer the same warmth as the fried noodles my father used to buy for me on my birthdays. Although the winters in Yangon may be hot, my heart remains as cold as the winters in Mogok. My artworks will reflect the days spent at home with my mother and father.

From an era marked by sorrowful grievances over unjust greed, from a fragile existence wrapped in leaves where the scent of burning is predominant.

Nae Eain (Mat) Tan (Daydreaming)

The pigeon is tormented by dreams of a home. Despite having a place to stay, the pigeon's longing for a home persists until he possesses one. He consecrated warmth, safety, light, wealth, and brightness, tirelessly drawing paintings day and night, all the while lamenting and manifesting his desire to own a home. Ignorance clings to him so tightly that he almost forgets he has to fly until he dies. The wings are freezing, in need of sunbathing come the next morning.

Eain Pyan Kyi Khan (Homebound Flight)

description

I take flight, returning momentarily as a pigeon to the familiar surroundings and dawn scenes of the house where I grew up. I captured the sound of a pigeon's whining in the form of a painting. Let's say the unadorned house is filled with warmth and love, offering comfort while resiliently enduring the cold weather of the hilly region. The cold winter breeze passes through the small opening in the bamboo wall, casting a tiny spot of light. The firewood stacked against the front wall is coated with the misty water of winter, poised to reveal their beauty under the sunlight. Awaiting the warm morning sunlight in the cold winter breeze, alongside the unadorned house. The aroma of fried sticky rice cake, accompanied by the resonant sound of a triangular brass gong, envelops a pigeon in flight as it gazes upon the mist. The warm sunlight filters through the trees, branches, twigs, and leaves, dispersing the mist and gently caressing the compound here and there. The wild sunflowers at the front of the house also awaken, and the mist on the petals and leaves dissolves and glistens under the sunlight. The family feast next to the damson tree on the mountain slope is also ready. The pigeon takes a short break on a branch of an Indian trumpet tree at the entrance of a compound, observing its surroundings. He grants a respite to his wings, destined to fly until his last breath, as he envelops himself in the morning sunlight and the warmth of the house. Observing a group of people clad in layers of jackets, he spreads his wings and soars through the wind, indulging in the daydream of a pigeon.
