Is there a Difference?

Is there a difference? is a 2.5m x 1.5m oil painting on unstretched canvas that presents a portrait of an unidentified woman to explore the duality of strength and vulnerability. Through photorealistic detail and a vibrant, text-filled background created with layered color and contrast, the piece questions the rigid binaries often imposed by society. The anonymity of the subject invites viewers to reflect on identity beyond labels, highlighting how power and softness coexist within us all. This work continues the conversation around fluidity, encouraging a deeper look into the assumptions we make about gender and expression.
