Bored (2026) reduces portraiture to its most elementary components. Suspended between humour and psychological ambiguity, the face occupies the entire pictorial field, allowing expression, colour and painterly surface to become the primary subjects of the work.
“A face does not begin as a portrait. It begins as a form that gradually accumulates expression through colour, gesture and repetition. I am less interested in depicting an individual than in allowing a painting to arrive at its own psychological presence. The simplest image can often contain the greatest ambiguity.”
