The Artwork The Kiss belongs to The Space Between series, which explores the tension between physical proximity and emotional distance. In The Kiss, two women stand side by side, mirrored, wearing the same clothes but in inverted colours. One is dark-haired with olive skin, the other blonde and fair.
The kiss between them remains suspended, frozen in a moment of intense tension. This tension can be read between two people, but it can also symbolize two halves of a single person: two hemispheres of the brain brushing against each other, struggling to communicate.
This painting speaks to the contradictions within all of us: desire and control, instinct and reason, surrender and awareness. The space between the figures becomes the breath of our inner life, a place where tension, presence, and distance coexist, turning silence into a tangible connection.
At the same time, it is a metaphor for human connection, desire, and the emotional or social distance that can exist between individuals.
