Square 5 (Mind Game)

Set within the glowing silhouette of a head, a faceted, coffin-like prism floats as a compact architecture of the psyche—its planes holding shadowed profiles, watchful eyes, and a harlequin grid that suggests identity as both performance and containment. The heated orange field radiates like a mind under pressure, while the cool, concentric halo at the edges acts as a dampening aura, separating inner turbulence from outer quiet. By turning portraiture into a geometric vessel, the work proposes consciousness as a sealed chamber where self, memory, and observation refract into competing versions of “I.”
