When life becomes a game of chess…. This is an original contemporary figurative painting of a rectangular shape. It is an acrylic on canvas artwork with a heavy textured black and white checkered background. In this composition, a young woman is lying down on a tool while two men play chess on her body. Through this work, I aim to evoke a sense of introspection and empathy among viewers, encouraging a greater understanding of how relationships sometimes become a game of strategy and manipulations with a deep desire to win, irrespective of the price that has to be paid. The entire composition is in bright vibrant hues of orange, red, ochre with contrasting brown, black and more in a very balanced manner, making the painting very attractive. The female figure is covered with butterflies and the male figures are covered in checks which form my signature style of symmetries. This artwork is from my figurative series called “We two together” To symbolize the pursuit of perfection within the modern human race, I use my signature style of symmetrical forms like squares, rectangles, checks, and butterflies to cover the human figures in my paintings. These geometric shapes represent the desire for flawlessness and balance, encapsulating the aspirations and struggles we all face as individuals striving for fulfillment.
