40 X 50 cm Acrylic on canvas
‘An opportunity’ is an abstract expressionist artwork with elements of surrealism. Through an intuitive and uninhibited initial process, this artwork conveys imagined subconscious thoughts transitioning into the conscious realm, represented through vivid forms that intertwine and appear tangled - a metaphor for personal feeling.
The subconscious mind in this piece can be seen feeding into a vortex-like shape that represents where the subconscious is processed into the conscious realm, which transforms into a fire-like form connoting haste, fear, and anger.
Surrounding this vortex there is a new force, an energy that disrupts the current formation of consciousness, an opportunity for new processing and consciousness.
This piece is a depiction of internal experience. An analogy of the subconscious and conscious mind. It's a conversation about the opportunity to redefine thoughts and emotions that are impressed upon us. A story of having the opportunity to create new conscious patterns and behaviours.
In simple terms: we have the opportunity to change the way we think, feel, and react through understanding and disrupting the subconscious. If you're like me, and you sometimes struggle with processing, emotions and understanding the self, this concept is an opportunity for you to explore.
