Portrait Of Waste
2025
Acrylic on Canvas
60 x 44


 A crumpled blue plastic water bottle, set against a vibrant red fur-like background, is presented within a trompe l'oeil painted gilt wood frame. This composition draws attention to human waste and its impact. By rendering the faux-gilt frame directly onto the canvas, the piece elevates the discarded object, framing it as though it belongs in a museum, challenging viewers to reconsider the value and consequences of such waste.
