Past Self
| Pointillism self portrait subconscious memory
2024, Markers on A4 paper 
About the Artwork
Past Self is a reflective self-portrait that delves into the fluid nature of identity and memory within the dream world. Through countless dots, the figure emerges from a field of color and abstraction, mirroring how fragments of the past reappear in lucid dreams. The artist revisits an earlier version of themselves — before the transformation symbolized by dreadlocks — and captures that meeting as a dialogue between present and past. The portrait exists between two realities, where the subconscious preserves memories as living entities. The result is a meditative, almost timeless encounter with one's former self, where perception and identity gently dissolve into each other.
