Wilful Reminiscence (The Mask) captures the memories of childhood through play. Executed on a monumental scale, the painting features two young children dominating the entire canvas using a bold palette of complementary colours. The background is devised through an experimental layout comprised of vibrant geometric layers which intercept the composition.
