Treasure Behind the Wall II (2024)

Beneath the multiple layers of wallpaper, the intricate, abstract pattern of the wall emerges. The shimmering diamond dust on its surface captivates anyone who takes the time to notice it. Developing this idea, I'm thinking of people as multilayered beings, much like the walls in my series. From the outside, individuals may appear consistent, with their behavior and presentation creating a certain image. But beneath that exterior, there are layers of experiences, emotions, beliefs, and hidden parts of themselves that can be vastly different or surprising. Consider how people are shaped by both external influences (like the "wallpaper" of societal norms or life experiences) and internal elements (their true nature, fears, hopes, or dreams). This unpredictability comes from the interplay between these external presentations and the often-hidden internal realities.
