Original artwork description
In “The Cards”, each figure becomes a human embodiment of fate — silent, mirrored, and suspended between two realities. The symmetrical composition echoes the duality of existence: the self and its reflection, choice and destiny, surface and depth.
The artist reimagines playing cards as metaphors for identity — not as symbols of luck or chance, but as portraits of inner balance, confrontation, and emotional stillness.
The repetition and reflection suggest a timeless game where the human soul is both the player and the card itself.
