Duality

"Duality" is an exploration of the complex interplay between confidence and vulnerability, rendered in mixed media on a primed archival wooden panel. The painting features two contrasting portraits of the same woman: one gazes upward with an air of confidence, framed by vibrant yellow, while the other looks downward, exuding quiet sadness. A dotted line connects the eyes of these two faces, symbolizing the unseen thread that ties these opposing emotions together.

The artist’s technique incorporates visible stages of the painting process, with delicate pencil sketches and textured backgrounds complementing the finished features painted in oil. This layering technique highlights the transition between raw emotion and refined expression, offering a sense of intimacy and process. The unpainted areas allow the viewer to connect directly with the artist’s hand and intention.

This thought-provoking work invites viewers to reflect on the dual nature of identity and the internal dialogue we all carry. Framed in a sleek white floating frame, "Duality" is both a deeply personal and universally resonant piece that will inspire introspection and emotional connection in any setting.
