Dysmorphia

“Dysmorphia” is an intimate exploration of the complex and often distorted relationship between self-perception and reality. Through vibrant yet unsettling shades of pink and green, the painting captures the emotional turbulence of viewing one’s body through a fractured lens. The abstract yet suggestive forms highlight vulnerability, as the figure seems caught between softness and scrutiny, reflection and rejection.

The deliberate imbalance in colors and composition mirrors the internal conflict of body dysmorphia—where what is seen is rarely what truly exists. The placement of the hand tries to mold the body into a shape that can be viewed as acceptable, but perfection will always be unreachable. The bold strokes evoke a sense of discomfort, while the hidden details invite viewers to confront their own perceptions of beauty and self-worth. “Dysmorphia” is not just a personal story but a universal challenge to the way we see and define ourselves.
