I produced this artwork for the purpose of academic exhibition. In this artefact I focused on the feelings of the father. How he felt having received back the son who was prodigious about all the riches he was given.
The wrinkles on the forehead describes the pain he anguished with in his heart while the grip of his skinny old hands showed how attached he was to his son. what really was the mood of the father? Still is the question.
