Beneath the Surface invites viewers into a layered world of movement, mystery, and introspection. Set against a vivid and energetic backdrop, koi fish swim through washes of colour and abstract marks, their elegant motion contrasting with the quiet stillness of the female face partially hidden among them. The work explores themes of identity, fluidity, and the tension between what we show and what we conceal. Much like the koi symbols of perseverance and transformation, the figure suggests depth, resilience, and the quiet stories we carry within. It’s a meditation on beauty, vulnerability, and the hidden currents that shape us. Show more
