The Red Shadow

A starkly minimalist and conceptual portrait. A large, black profile of a woman—calm and motionless. Emerging from behind her head and hair is the smaller, red face of another woman, with a red line gently trickling downward from beneath it. The image speaks of a hidden presence—an "other self" formed in the darkness of the mind that is now breaking through from the periphery. The extreme simplicity of the white background amplifies the weight of this red presence. A silent, incisive, and deeply symbolic work.
