Oil Paints on 2 x 3 ft Canvas
Two dark, silhouetted figures lean toward one another in a charged, ambiguous exchange, surrounded by crimson, ochre, and murky green. Floating symbols, hand-like marks, and a glowing, eye-like oval above them turn the scene into a ritualistic meeting of bodies, language, and memory.
This painting recalls Neo-Expressionism and artists like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Georg Baselitz in its rough silhouettes, symbolic marks, and raw figuration. The frontal, iconic pairing of figures also nods to African mask traditions, Byzantine icons, and postwar figurative expressionist narratives.
