From the Animal Conformism series, Night Line reflects the tension between individuality and societal pressure. Two abstracted animal-like faces merge into one form, evoking a surreal landscape of conformity. The row of houses on top suggests civilization’s weight upon natural instincts. Rich textures, bold strokes, and haunting gazes confront the viewer with questions of identity, suppression, and transformation.
