Paintings from the Mamad: Get Out While You Can

Get Out While You Can is part of the Paintings from the Mamad series, inspired by the repetitive reality of sirens, shelters, and uncertainty. Familiar figures from childhood and pop culture are placed in a tense, almost surreal scene—balancing escape and danger, innocence and unease. A floating figure clings to fragile balloons, while warning signs and looming threats create a sense of urgency. Through bold colors and comic-style elements, the work uses pop art to mask deeper anxiety—transforming chaos into something visually playful yet emotionally charged.
