Twisted Perceptions – Fragmented Identity
🖌️ CONCEPT / STORY
A human figure emerges through dense, layered strokes of paint, where identity dissolves into texture and form. The face is partially erased, overtaken by thick impasto surfaces, as if the subject is being rewritten by the very medium that defines it.
This work explores the instability of identity — not as something fixed, but as a constantly shifting structure shaped by memory, experience, and internal fragmentation. What remains is not a person, but a composition of layered existence.

“Identity is not a solid form, but a surface—layered, fractured, and constantly rewritten.”
