ABOUT THE WORK
A frontal portrait holds the frame with direct presence, set against a textured field that resists depth. The figure remains stable while the surface carries variation through tone and material.
The work operates through controlled alteration. The photographic layer defines the structure of the face and costume, while the painted intervention shifts weight toward selected elements, intensifying color and flattening hierarchy. The image becomes a constructed object rather than a fixed depiction.
The piece is produced through a layered process: the photograph is printed, painted with acrylic and gold leaf, and reprinted, forming a composite surface where image and material remain in tension.
