About the artwork

In front of me is a digital artwork that shows not just a car, but a mirror of time, power and desire. The bright yellow body, sleek and shiny, seems almost like liquid light that has crystallised into form. The vehicle looks straight at us: two round headlights like eyes that are at once stern and curious. The grill grille becomes a mouth, slightly opened, as if it is about to speak, maybe a growl, maybe a memory.

The number plate, framed by the American flag, points to origin, but also to the tension between individual and nation, between freedom and regulation. After all, the car is an icon of mobility and independence, but also of pride and identity. The letters and numbers seem random, but in their randomness, meaning emerges: a code that can be read both personally and universally.

The bonnet rises in a muscular arc, a subtle reference to the power that slumbers beneath the skin. This is not a silent machine, this is a promise of speed, a symbol of movement - even though it stands here motionless, caught in digital paint.
The work plays with duality: standing still and moving forward, silence and sound, matter and pixel. The yellow surface appears tangible but remains elusive.

"The Yellow Echo" is more than a car. It is a reminder of youthful dreams, of roads yet to be driven, of a horizon that keeps opening up. In this digital mirror, we see not only steel, but also our desire for freedom.
