Cherép

This painting depicts a mysterious character with a pinkish skull instead of a face dressed in a formal black suit with a white collar and tie. The figure looks illusory; the blurred outlines increase the feeling of ephemerality and anxiety. The background is greenish, with soft, foggy strokes that create the illusion of a dream or an otherworldly space. The look of the empty eye sockets seems to hypnotize, and the smirk of the skull gives the image an eerie mystery. This work can symbolize the impermanence of life, the inevitability of death, or a mask that hides the true face.
