In Head 2, the painter isolates a preserved deer head in a domestic corner. Bathed in the cold, unyielding artificial light of a lamp, the trophy’s natural history is flattened into a moment of interior design. Its glassy eye offers a blank, unnerving stare, while its upward-looming shadow transforms the static object into a persistent, haunting presence. It becomes an eerie "hollow witness" to the artificial nature of our private sanctuaries.
