Identity Crisis

Description of Art: Identity Crisis stages a theatrical, dream-tinged vignette in which a central character—or a pair of mirrored figures—occupies a jewel-tone setting of patterned grounds, ornate accents, and crisp silhouettes. Tatz’s hallmark blend of fantasy and vintage flourish is present in the costume-like details and luminous color, while the title underscores themes of transformation and self-invention. Gestural highlights and flattened, graphic contours emphasize the performative nature of identity, inviting the viewer to read the scene as both portrait and masquerade.
