LIQUID GOLD
Acrylics on canvas with augmented reality, 2024, 160cm x 210cm
Liquid Gold, from the Whispers in the Shadows series, moves through the unstable territory between concealment and exposure. The work suggests a figure, or perhaps a self, in the process of shedding constructed surfaces: masks, expectations, inherited narratives, and the quiet pressure to perform or please.
Echoing the imagery of kintsugi, the fracture is not treated as damage to be erased, but as a site of alteration, memory, and becoming. What appears hidden, wounded, or unfinished becomes the very place where transformation begins.
This painting is for sale and for rent. You can also purchase a museum quality print here.
The augmented reality animation also works on the print.
