Reflection (2024) Original Mixed-media Painting by GeGe Hirst

Part of the Emergence series, Reflection explores the layers that exist beneath the faces we present to the world. Bold colour, expressive mark-making and fragmented forms combine to create a portrait that balances confidence with vulnerability, strength with introspection.

The direct gaze draws the viewer in, while subtle shifts of colour and texture reveal a quieter emotional landscape beneath the surface. Rather than portraying a specific individual, the painting reflects the complexity of human experience and the many stories we carry within us.

At its heart, Reflection is about resilience, identity and the depth that lies beyond first impressions.
