As part of the Lemon Tree series, this painting depicts the artist’s mother standing shoulder to shoulder with her best friend, two women who both left far too soon. Their features are softened by time, recalling the way memory gradually blurs the details while holding tightly to feeling.
By leaving their faces indistinct, the work opens this personal moment to the viewer, inviting reflections on friendship, family, loss, and the preciousness of time shared.
