Fortunately Today Forever, 2025 is born from a primary intuition. Kantfish pauses in front of a field of sunflowers in northern Portugal and allows his subconscious gaze to take over. The artwork emerges from a direct, lived experience, unmediated, attentive, fully present.

The title evokes, consciously but not dependently, Margaret Keane’s imaginary. The reference is a declared wink. The large eyes that appear here do not reproduce an aesthetic or an inherited melancholy. On the contrary, where Keane revealed, over time, the intimate oppression that inhabited her figures, Kantfish introduces a displacement. Thousands of eyes observe, yes, but they do so from an open, vital, affirmative energy. They look with joy. They look in celebration. They hypnotize, leading to another dimension.

Sunflowers transmit life. Our intimate substance, which is our Nature. The visual and intimate contact activates an expanded consciousness that transforms everyday perception. The artwork proposes a dance of light and vitality where the visual movement and the superimposed layers generate an immersive, mutable, never fixed. Each movement generates a different image. Each instant reshapes the whole into an infinite experience.

In this sense, the piece fully embodies Kantfish’s More Than Real concept, where reality is represented in its true essence, with all its layers. Identification with nature and its infinite possibilities reminds us that life experience depends on the point of view we inhabit. It is enough to look and let our consciousness navigate.
