Description: This surreal portrait by Manish Barodia fuses distortion and symbolism to evoke a haunting psychological presence. Angular planes, exaggerated teeth, and hollow eyes suggest a figure suspended between reality and abstraction. The use of texture and tonal contrast draws viewers into a state of unease, prompting reflection on hidden emotions and identities. Beneath the grotesque surface lies a meditation on human duality—external form versus internal truth.
