This painting invites viewers into a young woman's psyche, blending childhood fears, curiosity, and cherished memories. A girl plunging into the sea symbolizes the fear and uncertainty of facing the unknown, mirroring the artist's daughter’s experiences. Beyond this initial scene, layers reveal her fascination with history, wanderlust, and love for reading, capturing a mind eager for knowledge.
A bold black and white striped section resembles a curtain, hiding a dripping water tap—symbolizing the passage of time and inevitable change. An adorned fish with jewellery and a flower represents beauty and fragility. Anchoring the composition is a hand holding a snow dome, symbolizing familial love and life’s cyclical nature, featuring a snowman built by the artist and her husband during her pregnancy. Sabine's painting ‘Splash’ intertwines fear, curiosity, and cherished memories with dreams of the future.
