Reflection Of Colour
04 February 2021
Humans are complex beings who struggle to reconcile their conflicting beliefs, desires, attitudes, and feelings. ‘Reflection of Colour’ explores these ideas, in colours and contrast.
Using colour symbolically, this contemplative portrait highlights our inner duplicity using opposing colours spectrum. Yet we see tendrils of darkness within in the light, too.
The vivid skin tone speaks to our desire for acceptance, without judgement or ridicule. Like many of us, this woman is suppressing a part of herself, unable to turn and embrace the light.
