This flower face Mrs Japandi has a husband called Mr Japandi and so it is a diptych. This flower face is an artistically shaped face, which does not meet the normal criteria for a face. It is face that does look sculpted. Mrs Japandi is her name because the whole work still gives a Japanese impression. The flowers in the background, but also the light flowers in the face, look really Japanese. Stoic she looks, this lady, expressionless it seems. The flowing face, fluid because of the black lines used to shape her face, looks soft. Past her face you look into the depths. Is this a traditional, is it a head of a shadow play, or maybe even a balloon, who knows. Either way, this work is intriguing. The colours used in this surreal work are blue, beige, taupe, cream, grey and black. This work is beautiful, on its own but the second one next to it by Mr Japandi is, of course, even more beautiful.
