«Lady in the mirror»

She looks into the lens the way many of us do, head tilted, one hand low and the bag in view. Then the picture slips. This glitch portrait shows a woman whose face breaks into shifted strips, with a black bar over her brow and pixel blocks drifting beside her head. A badge with a name and a score hangs in the corner, as if her whole self came with a rating.

A glitch portrait can say it plainly: being seen and being sorted are now the same thing. Her dress is a fine checkerboard, her skin is made of dots, and the gold baroque frame around her is the old language of status wrapped around a new one.

This pop art lithograph is made to order and finished by hand. After printing, I add my own acrylic brushstrokes on top, together with a textured gel that goes on white and dries completely clear, so the dots, the hair and the frame catch light like paint. Like other hand-embellished prints, it is stretched on a stretcher bar and set in a black frame, 60 x 80 cm. Each lithograph has its own serial number and a certificate.

It works as pop art for the living room with an edge, a portrait that people stop at. Message me on Instagram or by email to ask about timing and delivery.

The lithograph follows my original painting.
