Minotaur's Dream: Four From Beyond, 2020

From the series Minotaur's Dream

This painting presents a great hollow eye surrounded four hidden faces emerging from an endlessly transforming surface. Some appear ancient, others unborn, all suspended between revelation and concealment. The central dark eye functions less as a gaze than as a threshold, suggesting an opening into regions of the psyche where identity fragments into countless possibilities.

The title hints at visitors arriving from beyond ordinary experience—not necessarily supernatural beings, but archetypal presences that continually reappear in dreams, mythology, and religious imagination. As with the other works in the series, there is no fixed narrative. The painting becomes an act of contemplation, inviting viewers to linger until the hidden forms gradually disclose themselves. Each face encountered may feel strangely familiar, as though remembered from a dream rather than discovered in paint.
