After Us imagines a familiar urban landscape subtly transformed by the absence of its usual inhabitants. Within a recognisable Parisian cityscape, rabbits move through the foreground while a fox observes from above. Human architecture remains intact, but the animals occupy it without explanation, shifting the city from a space constructed for people into something strangely autonomous. The work plays with the tension between the permanence we assign to cities and the temporary nature of those who inhabit them. By placing animals within an environment associated so strongly with human culture, architecture and identity, the painting asks who a city belongs to once its people are removed. The scene sits somewhere between observation and imagined future, where the familiar becomes quietly surreal
