ABOUT THE WORK

Artwork Description

A chaotic dance of faces, masks, and television static collides into surreal narrative fragments.

A woman holds the faces of her own selves as a child peers into the void of a screen.A reflection on contradiction — love and resentment, calm and chaos — all held in balance.

The work suggests peace found through paradox.

THE ARTIST'S VOICE

Interpretation / Story

A portrait of fragmented consciousness — how identity flickers across roles and reflections, endlessly uncertain but vivid in its multiplicity.The inner conflict between feeling and facade. It explores emotional duality as both torment and truth.
