Addiction

The painting from the Addiction series is a hauntingly evocative piece, painted in acrylic paints and coffee. It delves into the emotional and psychological landscape of addiction, capturing despair and entrapment.

Dark colors dominate the canvas, with deep browns, somber blacks, and muted grays creating an oppressive atmosphere. Amidst this turbulent background, hauntingly expressive faces with hollow eyes emerge, reflecting the inner torment of those trapped in addiction.

The figures’ bodies morph into abstract shapes resembling bottles, symbolizing the substances that hold them captive. This fluid distortion conveys a sense of disintegration and loss of identity as if their humanity is consumed by addiction.

Using coffee as a medium adds unique texture and depth, nodding to the pervasive nature of addictive behaviors, including everyday substances like caffeine.

Mixed media on stretched canvas, unframed, ready to hang.
