The Scandal

The Scandal, 2024
Acrylic and pastel on canvas
36 × 48 in. (92 × 122 cm)

A charged scene unfolds in The Scandal, where figures from different worlds collide in a rush of reaction. Faces twist, bodies lean in, hands seem to reach, pull away, or gesture in urgent conversation. There is no singular perspective—only fragments of movement, overlapping and interwoven, as if the moment itself is unraveling in real time. Vibrant strokes of orange, pink, and electric blue clash against muted grays, creating a sense of tension between presence and obscurity. Dripping lines and layered forms suggest the fluidity of perception, where truth bends, shifts, and reshapes in the retelling. Suspended between order and chaos, the painting captures the energy of collective speculation—the way an event is not only witnessed but transformed through those who react to it.
