As viewers approach the work, their own reflection becomes layered into the image, blurring the boundary between observer and subject. I am interested in how our sense of self is shaped through our relationships with others. How much do we need one another to understand who we are? How much does it hurt when the connections we long for are absent, fractured, or unable to hold us in the ways we hope? The reflective surface invites viewers to see themselves within the work and to consider their own experiences of connection and belonging. It is a reminder that we are never entirely separate from one another; our identities are formed through countless encounters, relationships, and shared moments. If we are fortunate, we find a few people in our lifetime with whom we can be fully ourselves—people who reflect us back without judgment, people in whose presence we feel seen. Those rare connections can become a place of gathering, a place where we discover and rediscover who we are. This work is an exploration of that longing: the desire to be recognized, understood, and connected.#painting #jerseycityartist #togetherness #relationship #us$
