Untitled 12

This suite of paintings stages the figure as a contested terrain, where bodies, animals, and botanical forms interlock like fragments of memory trying to become whole. A restrained yet volatile palette—ochres, smoke-greys, and bruised greens—pushes the scenes into a dreamlike suspension, while sharp contouring and compressed space create the sensation of looking into private chambers of psyche rather than literal rooms. The recurring distortions of faces and limbs read as a meditation on identity under pressure: tenderness and threat occupy the same silhouette, and intimacy arrives braided with the uncanny. Across the series, narrative feels deliberately unstable, inviting the viewer to assemble meaning from symbolic collisions—mask, beast, flower, and bed—like a visual grammar of desire, fear, and transformation.
