This work represents the inner conflict of a woman trying to leave behind a past relationship. Even though she wants to move forward, the memory of her ex keeps coming back—through similar faces, scents, images, and situations that bring him to mind.nnBlue, the dominant color of the painting, reflects this emotional state: a mix of melancholy, confusion, and the search for peace. The man depicted clinging to her eye symbolizes the memory that insists on staying, that wants to be seen even when she tries to look elsewhere.nnThe woman is surrounded by fluid, cold lines, like a sea that envelops her but is slowly beginning to let her go. Acqua Passata speaks of a difficult transition: it is not only about forgetting, but about learning to live with what has been, without letting it hold her back anymore.
