4me4you visits Lazarides Gallery, which featured Juan Miguel Palacios: Wounded.

Lazarides Gallery..> Have you ever wondered what lies behind someone's smile? Palacios' artwork uncovers the emotions beneath a happy face, to the fatigue and pain that is produced by day-to-day experiences; the artist identifies these life experiences as 'wounds'. Using a woman's face as a base.

Drywall and a transparent vinyl are used instead of canvases, which create a depth within the painting, it is as if the vinyl is the woman's identity but the viewer is able to look through to see their interior and subsequently, their true feelings. The mix of emotions generates a feeling of uncertainty, leaving the viewer to cast their final opinions on what the subject is feeling.

4me4you..> I had a lot of fun photographing this collection of work. Expression of pain or heartache draws you to look at individual pieces shown. Also the blur effect it holds is amazing.
