René van den Berg takes us on a fascinating journey from the present to the past with his digital artwork "From the Present to the Past". This modern masterpiece shows two women, dressed in the opulent fashions of the 18th century, in stark contrast to the contemporary object they are holding: a mobile phone. The combination of blue tones and textures creates a stunning visual dynamic, while the embedded text and message are a reflection on time shifts and the ceaseless evolution of society. By mixing the past with modern symbols, René confronts us with questions about progress, memory and our relationship with technology. The skillful composition evokes nostalgia, but also reminds us how fast the world is changing, making us pause to consider the now and the connection with our ancestors.
