explores the inner battle between who we are and who we fear we might become. Each painting embodies iconic oppositions—hero and villain, alter ego and nemesis, light and shadow—contained within a single figure. Created using a combination of traditional acrylics and fluorescent paint, the works reveal dual images through shifts in lighting. Under black light, one glowing identity emerges; with the sweep of a simple beam of light, another version is unmasked. This transformation exposes the fragile line between opposing selves, where heroes become villains and hidden identities are revealed.
Neon Duality
Two conflicting lights. Two conflicting Paints. Two conflicting sides. One painting. Using a flashlight to unveil light and dark. Watch how its done in this short clip.
Gallery Show October 24-November 7th Core art Space Lakewood Colorado
I hung flash lights next these curtained off space. People were directed to go in and look around then use flashlight to reveal the change. It was a lot of fun hearing the reactions from the other side of the curtains when people turned on their flash light. Going into the curtains way a bit intimidating but often when people left they came back with more people to show. Hands down my favorite show I’ve done. Take a tour yourself in this quick video.
