A family portrait... but one where everything seems to be out of kilter. The human forms are present, but dislocated, invaded by indistinct shadows that blur the contours. In the center, a frozen, impassive child, surrounded by blurred black masses, like a heavy presence imprisoning him.
The bold, vivid colors—bright orange, contrasting blue, sunny yellow—counterbalance the scene's heavier atmosphere. A visual paradox that conveys the ambivalence of family ties: between attachment and suffocation, protection and oppression.
With Portrait of a Dysfunctional Family , WRD depicts the unspoken, the invisible tensions, the forces that run through family dynamics and sometimes leave indelible traces. A work as intriguing as it is disturbing, where everyone can project their own story.
