Description
Growing Old Is Scary emerged from a conversation between the artist and a co-worker about the unfamiliar responsibilities that begin to appear as adulthood approaches.The central figure is shown in a moment of physical and emotional exhaustion, his body suspended between movement and collapse. His covered face and tense posture suggest a desire to withdraw from the pressures surrounding him, while the rope and scissors become visual symbols of restriction and the possibility of breaking free.The work reflects on the uneasy transition into adulthood - the moment when life begins to demand decisions, responsibility and independence before one necessarily feels ready for them. The contrast between the figure's vulnerability and the rigid, fragmented background reinforces the sense of being caught between who we once were and who society expects us to become.Rather than presenting growing older as a simple progression, the artist approaches it as an emotionally complex experience: the fear of responsibility, the pressure of expectations, and the desire to remain free while learning how to navigate an increasingly demanding world.The artwork was created digitally on a graphic tablet and printed on cotton canvas as a single unique edition, signed by the artist. It will be shipped rolled in a protective tube.
Presentation
Mohamed Taha (b. 2002, Saudi Arabia) is a Sudanese digital artist based in Khartoum, Sudan. Entirely self-taught, he developed his artistic practice through independent exploration of digital media, using experimentation as both a technical and conceptual foundation. His early relocation from Saudi Arabia to Sudan profoundly shaped his understanding of place, identity, and cultural belonging—subjects that continue to inform his work. Alongside his artistic practice, Taha studies Psychology and French Language at the Faculty of Arts, University of Khartoum.
Working primarily in digital painting, Taha documents the rhythms of everyday Sudanese life, transforming ordinary moments into emotionally resonant visual narratives. Through layered compositions, cinematic lighting, and immersive atmospheric color, his works elevate fleeting experiences into reflections on memory, resilience, and collective identity.
The ongoing conflict in Sudan has become a defining influence on his recent practice. In response, his work has evolved from quiet observation into an act of cultural preservation, recording the beauty, traditions, and humanity that persist despite displacement and uncertainty. As an emerging voice in contemporary digital art, Taha continues to build a body of work that celebrates the endurance of everyday life while preserving the visual memory of a culture under threat.
