Regret isn’t just a feeling—it’s a story painted in every shade of what could have been, a silent weight that lingers long after the moment has passed. This piece captures the raw, complex emotions behind every choice we question, every path we didn’t take. It’s a visual exploration of how our past decisions shape who we are, for better or worse.

The blurred, distorted features of the figure suggest a mind caught between timelines, oscillating between what was and what should have been. Their face is neither fully present nor entirely absent, as if they are dissolving into memories, lost in the echoes of their own thoughts. The monochromatic palette reinforces the heaviness of introspection, where the world becomes void of color, overshadowed by the weight of past missteps.
