"To be seen" is an abstract painting that delves into our innate desire for acknowledgment, validation, and understanding for who we truly are, beyond surface appearances. Inspired by Freudian theory, this mixed media series explores the profound relationships we seek and form with other humans who resonate with our subconscious make-up. Created using an interplay of soak-stained sheer fabric and reflective prints on paper, “To be seen” is hand-stretched on wooden bars, adding to its tactile allure, material interactivity and transparency, to invite viewers on an intimate journey of self-discovery.
