About the work
Blue figure radiates yellow light, arms outstretched, interior chaos broadcast outward.
Artist's hand with brush hovers before the radiant blue figure mid-revision.
Lower legs dissolve into rippling blue and yellow ground strokes.
Brush meets canvas, exposing thick impasto ridges of blue, yellow, magenta.
Payal Agarwal sits before her radiant blue figure, composed and direct.

A figure rendered in blue stands against radiating yellow light. Her interior state is made visible to the world.
A periscope lets you see out while staying hidden. This painting reverses that function. Internal chaos is broadcast outwards.
This is what we look like when our defenses fail. When the performed self collapses. Not metaphor. Literal depiction of psychological exposure stripped to signal.
