🕷️ TWİSTED PERCEPTIONS – THE FRACTURED MIND
🧠 CONCEPT / NARRATIVE
This piece captures the exact moment when the human mind confronts its deepest fears. Consciousness feels invaded — emotions intertwine uncontrollably, losing all form. The figure stands between surrender and transformation, fighting the darkness while slowly becoming part of it.
At the heart of the work echoes a single question: “Do our fears shape us, or do we feed them?”
