hermaphrodite

This work is a quest for wholeness through love. Layering photographs of herself and her boyfriend, the artist creates a single, unified figure—part male, part female, part myth. The eyes of the Mona Lisa, long speculated to be modeled on a man, watch from the composite face, collapsing centuries of gendered gaze into one timeless stare.

Words like bisexual, androgynous, and similar drift across the body, not as labels but as echoes of the world’s attempt to define what love has already made complete. The green drips and raw seams expose the mess of becoming—not a refusal to be one thing, but a longing to be whole in another.

This is love as alchemy. A body as a bridge.
