Let's Be Honest, Our Friendship Peaked in High School| Gabriel LTA| 30x48 | Acrylic
Let's Be Honest, Our Friendship Peaked in High School is the aftermath of something that never officially ended.
Thick, fractured layers of white attempt to bury what came before, but the past refuses to stay hidden. Veins of black cut vertically through the surface like a fault line, a permanent divide, while flashes of color emerge in resistance, fragments of shared history that still insist on being remembered.
There is no single moment of collapse here. Instead, it’s a slow erosion. It's a quiet realization that the people who once knew you best now know only a version of you that no longer exists. Nostalgia centered around the closeness. A hollow echo of camaraderie in the distance. A memory of who you were when everything still felt permanent.
What remains is not bitterness, just the uneasy truth that some relationships don’t end, they simply stop growing.
