Duality by Rayven

Duality

Figure Drawing Series. The left is charcoal on white BFK Rives paper and the right is white charcoal on black paper. To me it’s about the duality of form. The two figures are competing against each other but are united. Faceless women portraying the everyday woman and the competition that we as women can sometimes have against each other whether it be our looks, our workplace, or at home. It also has a formalist point. By blurring your vision or squinting your eyes, it can become abstract with two V’s present the viewer can interpret whatever they desire. I’m horrible at describing my work.

This was done by a photographic reference from a redbubble member, Barssel. Check out his work, he’s an excellent photographer. http:.//www.redbubble.com/people/barssel

    Stunning work, Rayven. When I saw the small thumbnail I thought it was a B&W photo!
    I also love the meaning… just love artwork with meaning behind them. Your figure
    drawing gets better and better with each artwork. You have an enourmous amount of
    talent, so keep at it!

    Peace & Love,

    Grouchy ;)
