He

Triptych She / He / Her

(Formerly Trinity)

This triptych traces a quiet anatomy of influence—how identities bend, collide, and re-form in the presence of another. Each panel holds a different inflection of relationship: the pull, the rupture, the opening. “She,” “He,” and “Her” appear not as characters but as shifting states of self—how we grip, how we break, how we return to ourselves again.

During the period in which these works emerged, familiar structures were dissolving. In their place came an intense examination of attachment—the way the self stretches toward another, the way it contracts, the way it learns its own edges. Embedded in the titles is a subtle echo: the presence of “he” inside “she,” the trace of “her” reshaped by what came before. It gestures toward the ways identity can be inherited, imposed, or unconsciously carried, and the quiet rebellion of releasing those imprints.

Together, the three paintings form a cycle of unbinding: a movement from the held, through the fracture, into a new and unclaimed openness. Though each canvas stands complete on its own, the triptych reveals the larger pattern—the shedding of old relational scripts and the emergence of a self no longer defined by sacrifice, longing, or fusion, but by choice.
