In-Between Realities

Oil on Canvas

This painting is a vivid exploration of inner landscapes, blending surreal shapes with playful bursts of color. At its center stands a simplified, house-like form—white, grounded, and quiet—serving as an anchor amid the surrounding movement. Around it, curved blocks of blue, yellow, red, and green create a sense of shifting emotional terrain, as if each color represents a different state of mind.
The upper half of the painting moves into dreamlike abstraction: soft brown and cream gradients flow into a sleeping eye, a solitary flame-like mark, and a swirl of multicolored patches that feel like thoughts drifting across consciousness. Scattered geometric fragments, loose lines, and expressive color clusters contribute to a sense of internal dialogue or memory in motion.
Despite its complexity, the composition holds a gentle harmony. The contrasts between solid shapes and fluid textures invite viewers to interpret their own narrative—whether it’s a dream, a journey, or a reflection on the many layers that make up a single inner world.
