From the series The Lost Choice
60 × 80 cm
Canvas, acrylic and oil
This painting is part of the series The Lost Choice, a body of work dedicated to situations in which choice formally exists, yet in reality feels impossible. The series reflects on the female experience of living under the pressure of circumstances, responsibility, and social expectation — when decisions are made not from freedom, but from necessity. It explores the emotional aftermath of irreversible moments and the inner transformation that follows them.
Two Sides shares its title with a linocut and an embroidery from the same cycle, extending the idea across different mediums.
On the canvas, two female figures appear joined back to back, yet oriented in opposite directions. Their bodies are elongated, almost architectural, merging into a single vertical structure. One figure is lighter, the other darker, suggesting duality — memory and present self, choice and consequence, what was and what could have been.
Behind them unfolds a geometric composition of sharp planes and blocks of color: deep blues, muted greys, a sudden red accent, and small yellow circular forms that punctuate the space like distant signals. Organic white shapes — reminiscent of clouds, smoke, or dissolving forms — hover around the figures, softening the strict geometry. These shapes evoke thoughts, unrealized possibilities, or fragments of imagined alternative paths.
The two figures do not look at each other. They move in different directions, yet remain inseparably connected. The painting embodies the tension of lost opportunities — the quiet, persistent reflection on what might have happened if another decision had been taken. It speaks about the parallel realities we carry within ourselves: the life we live and the life we once considered.
Two Sides is not about regret alone. It is about the complexity of inner dialogue — about accepting that every chosen path simultaneously closes another. The work invites the viewer to contemplate the fragile space between past and possibility, and the silent coexistence of both within one body.
