High Society
High Society
Exploring the underlying tensions and complexities of an elite social environment. The loose, abstracted landscape allows for a more expressive and interpretive approach, reflecting the often ambiguous nature of high society.
The intense strokes of black, along with the varied tones of greys, blues, and whites, create a dramatic and moody atmosphere. These colors symbolize the contrasts and dualities present in the lives of the affluent—the elegance and exclusivity juxtaposed against the isolation, pressure, and perhaps even moral greyness that can accompany such status.
The abstraction invites viewers to contemplate the scene and emotions without the constraints of a defined reality. Through this painting, we explore themes of power, privilege, and the often-hidden struggles within a world of apparent sophistication and opulence. "High Society" becomes not just a visual piece but a commentary on the complexities and contradictions of social hierarchies.
