Final Cut, 2023
Acrylic on canvas

In Final Cut, I explore identity, social expectation, and the roles we perform in contemporary life. A seated figure in a vivid purple suit cuts a red tie on a plate with a knife and fork, transforming an ordinary meal into an unexpected, almost ritualistic scene.

The tie, commonly associated with work, status, and conformity, becomes something to be consumed, rejected, or dismantled. The gesture can suggest both the internalization of imposed identities and the desire to break free from them. By partially concealing the figure’s face, I shift the focus from a specific individual to the symbolic action itself.

The strong contrast between purple, red, and soft pink gives the composition a theatrical stillness, while the surreal gesture introduces a subtle sense of absurdity. The painting reflects on conformity, identity, and the possibility of redefining the roles we are expected to inhabit.

The painting was selected to be presented at HAAM 2026 in Hamburg, as part of a group exhibition.
