About the artwork

This digital artwork captures the spirit of a time when music was more than just sound - it was a mirror of identity, a promise of freedom, and a collective memory that would connect generations. With bright colours, sharply defined figures and a pop-art style reminiscent of 1960s posters, the viewer is transported back to an era when vinyl records played like ritual suns in the living room.

Left and right, we see two fictional pop groups - two voices from the past that brought not just songs, but stories of youthful longing, irony and rebellion. Their bodies, cloaked in contrasting colours of yellow, red and blue, are stylised into icons: almost cartoon characters, yet laden with historical gravitas. Here, they are no longer individuals, but archetypes of a musical era that keeps reinventing itself.

The red background acts as a glowing horizon, a canvas of pure energy against which the musicians glow. The repetition of primary colours symbolises simplicity, but also the inexhaustible power of repetition in music: refrains that burn themselves into our memory, chords that never seem to get old.

The title at the top, "Echoes of Old", carries a paradox. Old, but never worn out; gold, because it continues to shine in memory. This work invites us not just to look, but to listen with the heart - to hear the echoes of voices that once broke the silence and led us to a shared sense of timeless youth.
