Duality Original Painting
$4,444.00
Description
"Duality" is a powerful, large-scale exploration of the journey toward body neutrality and the pursuit of the authentic self. In this 2024 original, Sam Bodkin captures the internal dialogue between how we are perceived, how we see ourselves, and the raw truth that exists beneath the surface.
The Narrative:
The composition centers on the tension and harmony of self-image. The dark, reaching silhouette represents the aspirational or protective shell we present to the world, while the intricate, translucent figure within reveals a vulnerable, honest anatomy. The inverted white reflection at the base signifies the "mirror self"—the distorted or filtered ways we often view our own bodies. Together, these layers symbolize the work required to peel back societal expectations and find peace within one’s own skin.
Medium: Acrylic paint and Posca marker on canvas.
Dimensions: 36" x 48".
