This work is part of a series in oil paintings in which a woman metaphorically confronts a skull. The relationship between them transcends the physical, entering an emotional and existential realm. A chromatic resemblance between skin and bone strengthens their symbolic connection. The skull, more than an inert object, becomes a projection of the woman’s unconscious: a reflection of fear, mortality, or a fragmented version of herself that she struggles to recognize but feels as part of her. Its quiet closeness suggests a confrontation that is both internal and inevitable.
