"Jealousy" is an evocative abstract painting that explores the intense and often chaotic emotions associated with envy. The canvas is dominated by bold strokes of yellow, a color typically associated with warmth and light, but here it conveys the consuming, disruptive nature of jealous feelings. The splashes of orange throughout the artwork further intensify the theme, representing the fiery heat of passion and anger that often accompanies jealousy.
The dynamic, almost aggressive application of paint creates a sense of movement and turmoil, mirroring the tumultuous internal state that jealousy can invoke. The overlapping layers and textures suggest a complexity of emotions, portraying how jealousy can layer and compound over time, distorting perceptions and interactions.
It challenges the audience to confront their own experiences with jealousy, encouraging a deeper understanding of how such feelings can influence and alter our lives.
