An Alien in town

In this painting we meet an alien dressed like a human. He lives in a small, quiet town. Long ago, other aliens left him behind, so now he tries to fit in with people around him. He works, he walks, he copies human ways. But his large, shining eyes always make him different. Every evening, when he returns home from work, he stops and looks up at the sky. The stars remind him of a place he cannot reach. With a soft sigh he asks, “Where is home?” The painting speaks about loneliness, about trying to belong, and about the endless search for a true home.
