This bold contemporary diptych features two expressionist-style portraits of a woman in mid-motion, captured in layered strokes of vibrant yellow, red, and black. Both canvases incorporate a stencil-style phrase in block red letters—“I AM / I WAS / I WILL BE”—evoking themes of identity, transformation, and time. The compositions are emotionally raw, blending figuration with abstraction, and employ dripping paint techniques that add texture and movement. The contrast between the teal and ivory backgrounds enhances the visual and thematic dialogue between the two works.
