"The Duality of Self"
The Duality of Self is a collection of recent paintings that loosely explores the themes of human complexity and conflicting emotions/behaviors within us all. The series is completed through various diptychs and paintings consisting of two figures expressing opposite points of contrast within one being. Inspired by the heightened attributes and stereotypes assigned to my character at birth as a Gemini, this exhibition pushes to encourage the malleability and fluidity of humans in general, regardless of astrological placements. Each change in thought, feeling, or expression is just as valuable as the next, all coinciding within you, even if they go unnoticed to the public eye. There is more than one way to be yourself.
