AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A vivid dance of colour and emotion, Flowing Illusions is a powerful exploration of identity, perception, and the raw beauty of self-expression. Created using acrylics and fluid pouring techniques, this mixed media artwork features bold pigment drips that flow like rivers of consciousness—blurring the boundaries between what we show and what we hide.

The central figure, painted in deep violet tones, represents quiet strength. As vibrant colours cascade over the face and hands, they create a hypnotic tension between control and chaos—each layer adding to the illusion, while revealing more of the soul beneath.

Framed in a clean white border to enhance its vivid palette, this 90cm x 75cm piece is ready to make a bold statement in any modern interior or collector’s gallery.
