Metamorphosis II _Abstract Digital Art
Like my first painting, 'Metamorphosis I,' my second painting, the 'Metamorphosis II,' also tackles modern society's fear of ageing and loss of youthful looks that often cause social invisibility and rejection.
But there is another subtle fear that ageing brings to the fore: loss of oneself.
Probably many of us ask ourselves (I know I do): is the twenty-year-old me the same person as the forty-year-old me or the sixty-year-old me? Did the two merge together? Did one die in favour of the other? Is the older less valuable than, the younger self was? If we are the same person, why do we get a different response from others?
In my opinion, deep down, the fear of ageing is connected to the fear of losing oneself.
Even psychologists have the trouble of solving this puzzle:
"How much have you changed in the past ten years? Your body has aged, and you have some different memories, beliefs, and attitudes. But many of your memories are the same, and your body has similarities and continuities with what it was before.
Will you be the same person ten years from now? You might be dead or have some kind of brain injury or dementia that will have taken away much of your mental functioning. Is a demented or unconscious self still you?" - Paul Thagard, Ph.D., Are you the Same Person you Used to Be?
What are your thoughts on this matter?
