Before I Was Born - is a series of 3 oil paintings, created by Ellen Sheidlin in 2025. The series is the artist's reflection on the idea of "memory before memory" - the liminal state of the human being before their first existential experience. It suggests a realm that precedes language, identity, and fear - a space where impressions are not yet bound by consciousness, but exist as fluid sensations and archetypal images. Through these works, Sheidlin invites the viewer to contemplate the fragile threshold between the realm of pure imagination and the moment when the self first begins to take form.
