I hope to see you

I hope to see you is inspired by "The Scream" by Edvard Munch. The toxic color palette is beautiful and vile, and blankets the figure in a supernatural light. The spectator is seduced by a jarring composition and bold use of color. The face is stretched into an extreme and almost grotesque position, echoing the deformed figures of El Greco and Rodin; the strokes and color emulates that of de Kooning and Bacon. All the while, the anesthetized character is trapped within the boundaries of the canvas, alienated from waking life.
