More Birthday Cake explores the multifaceted nature of celebration and its bittersweet relationship with time. Using birthday cake as a symbol of life’s cyclical milestones, the work reflects on how joyous rituals evolve into nuanced reflections on ageing and transience. Through painting, sculpture, and installation, the vibrant hues, bold brushstrokes, and textured surfaces evoke the complex emotions of festivity, blending enthusiasm with introspection.
