I’m Lost in There looks through a rain-streaked window, where a child’s drawn a heart on the glass meets the blur of car lights and the glow of a distant club. The work speaks to the longing many children feel to grow up too quickly, yearning for nightlife, neon, and escape than in the natural world that first shaped them. There’s a sadness in this desire: childhood is shortened, and with it the years of imagination, play, and deep connection to nature that form our sense of belonging to the earth. More and more, children are drawn into the pull of screens, cities, and consumer culture, missing the formative experiences of climbing trees, feeling weather on their skin, or finding wonder in the living world around them. Created with reclaimed materials, this painting ties that loss of innocence to a wider environmental urgency. Just as childhood cannot be reclaimed once it’s gone, neither can the ecosystems we neglect or destroy. I’m Lost in There is both a memory and a warning: a reminder of what is lost when we chase adulthood too fast, and what is at risk when we forget our bond to the natural world.
