Diptych oil on canvas
Combining botanical imagery with the human figure, the artist explores the emotional landscape of the mind through surreal, expressive compositions. Floral blooms emerge from the body as visual metaphors for feelings—beautiful, complex, and at times unsettling—suggesting that emotions, like plants, require care, attention, and balance to flourish.
Painted in luminous oils against matte acrylic backgrounds, the contrasting surfaces heighten the vibrancy of each bloom while emphasizing its fleeting, organic presence. Influenced by figurative surrealism, mythology, and dreamlike imagery, the work invites viewers to reflect on the inner lives we cultivate and the quiet ways growth unfolds within us.
