If We Forget Our Past We Cannot Understand Our Future - Large Mixed Media Painting

If We Forget Our Past, We Cannot Understand Our Future is an original acrylic painting by Dex Hannon, exploring the fragile connections between memory, history and renewal. Through layered colour and textured surface, Hannon reflects on how the past continues to shape the present.

This work belongs to his continuing practice of abstract expressionism, where intuition guides every mark and gesture. The painting invites quiet contemplation, encouraging the viewer to consider how memory, time and change are woven together.

Rich tones and shifting textures evoke both erosion and reconstruction, suggesting a cycle of loss and rediscovery. The piece is ready to hang, signed on the reverse and presented as a unique original artwork that captures Hannon’s meditative dialogue between remembrance and transformation.
