Threads of Self - This women's painting shows two side profiles of a woman, interwoven with a dynamic composition of colour and line work. The faces are fragmentary, partly filled in with mosaic-like facets that suggest glass or mirror effects. The underlying skin tones range from beige tones to soft greys, against which the reds and oranges in the hair contrast violently. Fine, almost electric red lines intertwine around and between the faces, creating a sense of movement and connection. Sparkles of gold accentuate the composition while discrete smudges and splashes are scattered across the surface, giving a raw texture to the work. Also noteworthy are the small images of fish that seem to float around the faces, adding a surreal element to the scene. Combining both abstract and realistic elements, this artwork raises questions of identity and belonging through its complex layering and rich use of colour.
