There is a chronological and social contradiction in this artwork in which the depicted sand and terracotta coloured patterns of the floor belong to ancient Roman times. The people that are present can be guessed only by seeing their shoes. Some are shiny and expensive, making a bow to the Roman aristocrats who might have walked the same floor, but there are also sneakers or basketball shoes, unfitting in this historical site, reminding of tourists and, looking back, those vagabonds who once sacked Rome.

Dita Lūse is an award-winning artist based in Latvia, whose artworks have been exhibited internationally.  She has studied at the Art Academy of Latvia and University of Wisconsin and has had over 30 solo shows and participated in numerous group shows. Dita Lūse is a painter and works in oil on canvas, in a manner which resembles watercolour painting - with thin washes in multiple layers.  While her art explores diverse subjects, the recurring theme is the relation between light and time. Luse often depicts spaces that are laden with memories, highlighting the depth and atmosphere that light creates. Her engaging compositions fuse realism with impressionism and conceptual art. The works by the artist cover themes such as the interplay of light and shadow in interiors, the enigmatic characters of X-ray images and the depiction of multi-layered memories in the works of the recent years.
