Circling Thoughts

30 x 40 cm

The image shows an abstracted figure with a striking black head, depicted as an oval that layers inwards. The face is obscured by a cloud-like structure that runs horizontally through the head. The body, also in black and grey, appears massive and without any discernible details, which draws the focus to the head and the cloud structure above it.
The clouds are symbolic of thoughts, dreams and inner conflicts that obscure the figure's clear perception or identity. It indicates a state of confusion, overwhelm or uncertainty in which the person is influenced by something invisible or intangible. The layering of the head also indicates profundity, complexity or an inner journey.
The black, grey and white colour scheme creates a melancholic yet mysterious mood. The lack of eyes, mouth or other facial features deprives the figure of its individuality and reinforces the impression of anonymity or a universal symbol of humanity.
