Title: Smoke & Stare
This playful, comic-style texture artwork features a bold, unconventional woman who refuses to blend in. With a cigarette dangling casually from her lips and two wide, staring eyes in place of her breasts, she challenges the viewer in both gaze and attitude. The piece flips the script on who is looking and who is being looked at, with a wink of humor and a touch of the surreal.
Vibrant, clashing colors — electric blue, hot pink, and green — create a chaotic, joyful energy, while layered textures give the piece a rich tactile presence. Glossy beads shimmer with movement, while fabric and sculpted surfaces add volume and pop-art flair to her exaggerated features.
This is not just a visual piece — it’s meant to be felt. From smooth finishes to rough, textile touches, every part of the work invites interaction. Sensual, strange, and satirical, Smoke & Stare celebrates bold femininity with a rebellious gaze and eyes that never blink.
