Seasons
This striking portrait titled "Seasons" presents a powerful visual metaphor through its dramatic split composition. One half of the face appears in stark white against a black background, while the other half bursts with a vibrant patchwork of colors—reds, blues, yellows, greens—applied in distinct painterly blocks. The duality creates a compelling statement about human complexity: the monochromatic side suggesting starkness or clarity, while the multicolored half represents emotional richness, creativity, or perhaps the fullness of lived experience. The simplified, almost mask-like facial features enhance the symbolic quality, making this less about a specific individual and more a universal statement about the multifaceted nature of identity and perception.
