The Human Condition

2023 – 2024

Acrylic paintings on canvas

This series delves into the extensive spectrum of human emotions, often focusing on the euphoric and ecstatic states of being. However, it also explores a variety of other emotional and mental states. Ranging from euphoria to schizophrenia, the collection delves into different moods and psychological conditions prevalent in daily life, translating them into paintings that reflect both aesthetic beauty and emotional depth.

Positive emotions such as euphoria and ecstasy are depicted using vibrant colors and abstract expressionist techniques. Conversely, darker or socially perceived negative emotions and mental states are portrayed in a Caravaggist style, employing heavy tenebrism alongside a modernist approach. Through this juxtaposition of styles, the series seeks to evoke a nuanced exploration of human experience and psyche.
