“Inherent Existence” is a contemplative piece from the “Composure” series that peels back the layers of our inner selves. As we strive to withstand the complexities of our surroundings, we often wear masks of composure. This painting exposes the inherent existence of these masks, which we use to hide our fears and emotions. The artwork invites viewers to question whether we truly exist within these masks or if we are merely living in a state of temporary illusion. “Masked Realities” challenges our understanding of authenticity and the price we pay for concealing our true selves.
