In this artwork, I've channeled a blend of realism and primitivism to critique and reflect on the commercialization of identity. Using cool blue tones and stark, simple lines, the piece juxtaposes the intimate nature of a passport photo against the impersonal, commercial framework suggested by the advertisement aesthetic. It invokes reflection on how personal identity is commodified and the implications of being reduced to a product in a consumerist society. This painting will bring a thought-provoking and conversation-starting energy into any space.
