The Other Side of Me
The Other Side of Me
The Other Side of Me explores the quiet distance between who we appear to be and who we truly are.
In a room marked by time, a white hare dressed in a faded blue checked jacket stands before an aged mirror. Beyond the weathered glass, another version of itself waits — familiar, yet strangely different. The two figures face each other in silence, separated by something that seems almost invisible.
The worn textures, muted blue tones and delicate traces of gold create an atmosphere of nostalgia and quiet introspection. An old vase, forgotten books and a tiny bird add to the feeling of a story suspended somewhere between memory and imagination.
There is something deeply human in this unusual encounter. The hare seems to be searching for more than its reflection — perhaps for something it once knew, something it has forgotten, or a part of itself that has remained unchanged.
Blending poetic surrealism with painterly detail and vintage-inspired textures, the artwork transforms an ordinary moment into a meditation on identity, vulnerability and the passage of time.
Sometimes, the person we are looking for has been waiting inside us all along.
With its restrained colours, emotional depth and distinctive surreal character, The Other Side of Me brings a thoughtful and quietly mysterious presence to contemporary interiors.
