Charades

'Charades' is a 36"x72" multi-canvas oil painting on wood panels.

“'Charades' explores the contradiction of a false perception, when something appears one way yet simultaneously opposes itself creating a false sense of conflict. Similar to the actions of a hypocrite, false perception runs deep in many lives and affects our trust in others. Contrasting patterns, textiles and abstraction 'Charades' further explores the facade and deception of performative identity. This desire to conceal our true selves is often amplified by the experiences we form as children and develop from the homes we grew up in.”
