Description

Divine Being" is a striking, deeply textured mixed-media portrait that challenges traditional boundaries of material and form. Meticulously constructed using hundreds of repurposed leather and synthetic watch straps, the artist employs an innovative mosaic technique to render the complex contours and shadows of a human face. The interplay of dark, rich blacks and deep browns on the left against the lighter tan and blush-pink straps on the right creates a dramatic chiaroscuro effect, symbolizing the duality and depth of the human spirit. Framing the highly structured, geometric visage are organic bursts of tangled, multicolored thread and yarn. This chaotic, vibrant perimeter adds a raw, textural contrast to the rigid, vertical and horizontal alignment of the buckled straps. The juxtaposition of these materials invites collectors and viewers alike to explore profound themes of time, identity, and the inherent divinity woven into the everyday human experience.

Artist Statement
Through the reimagining of discarded everyday items, I seek to explore consumerism, identity, and the hidden beauty of resilience. Each component—whether a forgotten toy or a worn leather strap—brings its own history, merging together to form a complex, unified portrait that challenges our perception of waste and worth
