About the artwork

This "false reflection" is the visual representation of an inner dissonance. It is a look into a mirror that reflects not the external reality but the troubled landscape of the subconscious. The luminous, horizontal line in the centre does not function as a dividing wall, but as a field of tension in which the upper and lower halves of the picture - and thus also conscious and unconscious perception - meet and rub against each other. What we see are not exact mirror images, but asymmetrical counterparts that show how our self-image is distorted and changed. The geometric shapes on one side could represent rational thought, while the flowing, organic lines on the other represent emotion and intuition. The discrepancy between the two halves is what makes the picture so captivating. It is a metaphor for the human quest for identity and wholeness, and shows that what we project on the outside often does not match our inner core. The "false reflection" is a state in which we cannot fully recognise ourselves because parts of ourselves are hidden or distorted. The luminous, golden wave flowing through the image is the energy of self-perception, sometimes clear and distinct, sometimes diffuse and intangible. This image speaks of the search for harmony between the contradictory facets of our personality. It is an invitation to accept imperfection as part of our own beauty and to view dissonance not as a flaw, but as a motor for personal growth.
