This work explores the emotional evolution of a relationship through layered figurative forms.
Two faces meet in an intimate kiss at the center, while the surrounding profiles of the same figures turn away from each other. The repetition of their forms represents different psychological stages of the same bond — closeness, fusion, doubt, distance, and estrangement.
The figures are not separate people. They are the same two individuals seen at different moments in time.
The vertical composition suggests a timeline, almost like memory stacking itself. The green tones symbolize emotional intensity — desire, growth, jealousy, hope — while the dark background isolates the relationship from the outside world, turning it into a self-contained emotional universe.
The soft oil blending contrasts with the sharper oil pastel contours, reflecting the tension between tenderness and fracture.
