Love / Mortality - Mixed Media: 16" x 20" (framed)

This striking composition confronts the uneasy proximity between desire and destruction through the repeated language of hearts, skulls, and fractured symbols. Divided into two mirrored vertical fields, the work juxtaposes playful romantic iconography with emblems of mortality, transforming familiar imagery into a meditation on emotional risk and impermanence.

Vivid reds dominate the surface, generating an atmosphere of urgency and intensity, while faded pastel hearts and weathered skull-and-crossbone forms create a ghostly sense of repetition and erosion. Rows of black broken-heart symbols interrupt the composition like emotional static.
