You are going to die one day.

Wait, that's not a threat.

It's a reminder.

Too often we act as if we are immortal.

Imagine you just woke up in the hospital and the doctor told you:

"I'm really sorry, but you only have a few days left to live."

That's not easy to hear.

But what would you do in the end?

Would you continue living the same way or….

Would you enjoy every day to the fullest? Would you do what you always wanted to do? Would you do what is most important to you and with the people you like the most?

How big is the difference between how you would live your last days and how you live now?

Our avoidance of discomfort and fear robs us of the best. Think about that the next time you want to put off something important until tomorrow.

This image will offer you a new perspective so that you can see your obstacles for the pettiness that they are.

Realize how precious every moment is and what is really important to you.

This work was exhibited in the gallery MADS Milano as part of the exhibition called Dream Room - International Contemporary Art Exhibition.

This is an analysis and critical review written by Art Curator Silvia Grassi:

"The mirror serves to look into the face and the work of art to look into the soul."

(quoted by George Bernard Shaw)

Looking in the mirror is a way to admire your outer figure, but it is also the only way to look directly into your own eyes, and since the eyes are the window to the soul, it means to look inside, to reflect on our inner aspects that are not on the outside see.

The mirror puts us in front of ourselves, it shows us the outer and inner part of our being, our body and our soul.

The same thing happens when we observe the works of an artist: the work is a mirror of his soul, a gateway to his deeper self.

The young Czech artist Misha Fryč shows us what is reflected in the mirror with his work entitled "Death in the Mirror": the abstract and indefinite contours of the image of death, which also symbolize the distant future.

But he is not afraid of her, on the contrary, he touches her with his hand.

In fact, the work introduces us to his reflections and his very intimate and personal thoughts: the knowledge that we do not live forever and therefore, without worrying about the future, we must manage to make the most of every moment we are given.

As we can see in the works presented here, the communicative power and effectiveness of Misha's work lies in the ability to blend abstraction with realism, thus combining dream and reality, fantasy and concrete events, inner thoughts and lived life into one whole.
