 Oil on canvas, 80x80cm, on a 4.5cm thick stretcher frame.

 Camouflage Painting - Homage to Andy Wahrhol's legendary "Camouflage" series. But different. This is about self-perception and dealing with our emotions. Do we keep ourselves covered or do we display them openly? As a camouflage for invisibility in a modern, complex world ? To whom do we want to open up, where do we want to hide our feelings? After all, what we try to hide is often just as conspicuous as what we want to show. The contrasting layers of color and shapes are intended to encourage the viewer to to think about the complexity and different levels of reality.
