The snake, symbolic of toxicity, spirals gently around the face, embodying the act of purging what no longer serves. The artwork captures a visceral moment of cleansing—where the inner venom is expelled, allowing the spirit to renew. The green of the snake mirrors the hue of poison, yet in its departure, it signals a profound purification, a release that is both painful and liberating, leaving behind a sanctified essence.
Title: Relationship
In Relationship, a pastel on paper, faces meld and intertwine in a dance of human connection.

This artwork delves into the complexity of bonds, illustrating that love and connection defy singular definitions. Whether romantic or platonic, each relationship breathes its own rhythm, its own language.

Title: Blue in Love
In Blue in Love, a pastel on paper, a woman’s face is gently illuminated by a wash of blue tones. This serene colour, rich with connotations of passion, courage, and trust, envelops her in a tender embrace. The painting portrays her immersed in a profound state of love, unperturbed by the return or absence of affection. The blue reflects her emotional depth and resilience, capturing both the ecstasy and the poignant solitude of selfless devotion. Through this tranquil yet evocative hue, the artwork explores the dual nature of love—its capacity to heal and its ability to harbour silent pain.
Title: As if I care
In “As If I Care”, a pastel on paper, the scene juxtaposes romance with an unusual element: a pig.

The pig, often seen as a creature of stubbornness and excess, adds a layer of complexity, suggesting a disconnection or apathy within the relationship. The pastel hues evoke a sense of emotional distance, as if the lover's care is as superficial as a mere gesture. Through this provocative imagery, the piece explores themes of emotional detachment and the often-unspoken complexities of love.
