“Too Fast” Original oil painting

“Too Fast” was inspired by everyday life — more precisely, by my early morning walks with my dog. Each morning, we stop to buy coffee at a place that also sells kebabs. Even at seven o’clock in the morning, it is already full of people eating, rushing, starting their day.

This recurring scene made me question how fast everything moves today. Everyone seems to be in a hurry, chasing quick results in every area of life. Speed has become something that is constantly being sold to us — faster solutions, faster success, faster satisfaction.

With this work, I aim to reflect the chaos of contemporary life and to raise a simple yet important question: am I still able to be present in this very moment? Do I still have time for a calm breakfast, or have I also become part of this endless rush?
