Artwork statement / Remarks

Roses: the female figure becomes a space of introspection, where identity, emotion, and memory are expressed through fragmented geometric forms. The roses surrounding her suggest beauty and tenderness, but also the layers of experiences that shape the inner self.

Through contemporary Cubism, the figure is simplified and reconstructed from multiple perspectives, allowing the physical form to coexist with an emotional dimension. The interplay of light, color, and geometry creates a sense of movement within stillness, inviting the viewer to look beyond the recognizable image and connect with the woman’s interior world.

The work explores the idea that identity is not fixed, but composed of many fragments—memories, emotions, experiences, and perceptions—that continually redefine who we are.
