The Arrangement, part one

5 x 7 inches, Mixed media on watercolour paper

“"The Marriage, part one" is the first image in a series which depicts the internal psychological conflict where fear and instability overwhelm structure and belief. The grinning, shadowy wolf's figure embodies intrusive, destructive thoughts that dominate the mind. In contrast, the glowing bride represents the core self. She is instinctive, alive, and attempting to escape, but she is still entangled in the chaos. This piece ultimately asserts that the bride is caught in a struggle where her sense of identity is being consumed by darker forces, with escape still uncertain.”
