Two abstract, intertwined heads emerge from one another, their glossy, iridescent surfaces creating a sense of tension and ambiguity. The work explores the psychological conflict of navigating contradictory ideas, presenting a visual metaphor for the internal friction experienced in the face of competing narratives.
The figures, both conjoined and in opposition, evoke the disruptive effects of information and disinformation in contemporary society. The sculpture reflects the cyclical nature of this distortion, with each head shaping and destabilizing the other, symbolizing the erosion of clarity when truth and falsehood coexist. The precarious balance of the heads emphasizes the fragile state of perception in an era where facts and fictions intermingle, creating an unstable reality.
