My work explores silent conversations between the male genders in society and studies the unbalanced nature of hierarchy amongst men. These hierarchies, which in my opinion are questionable, have become norms accepted and followed by society. I unpack these muted conversations by using facial expressions and hand gestures, which are considerably masculine and at times, aggressive. Compositional elements such as chiaroscuro and the use of forms that appear obscured or unrevealed are employed to heighten the mystery and sinister mood within the works.
