Arguing myself

Jesus Olivan. "Discutiendo conmigo mismo". 2012. Oil on  canvas 130 x 97


Some months ago I visited an exhibition about Cindy Sherman. Sherman photographs of hershelf with different clothes were shown. She characterized as different people. As in the self protraits by  Rembrandt different emotions were displayed. I remembered "the social brain" by Gazzaniga, the connection of different modules set together to analyze the environement and to act. So,  I decided to represent myself in two different emotional states. One of the persons is very upset and the other is telling him that it does not worth.
