2025 Archibald Prize Entry

I’ve sought to capture the delicate interplay between shadow and light—both the literal contrasts on the canvas and the metaphorical ones within our inner world. The left half of the self-portrait, cloaked in darkness with lunar references, reflects the deep, often unspoken realm of one’s past fears and inherited beliefs. On the right, the canvas opens into a subtler brightness and hidden celestial hints, suggesting the gradual emergence of hope and renewed identity.

Running down the center is a translucent gold seam that speaks to the idea of embracing imperfections and scars, reminiscent of the kintsugi tradition where cracks are mended with precious metal. It is a quiet reminder that we are, in essence, the sum of our experiences—both painful and illuminating. Over the heart, I’ve shaped a lion-flower motif in soft crimson tones, symbolizing courage and growth. This abstracted “lion heart” underscores the conviction that, when nurtured, even the wildest parts of ourselves can flourish into something both powerful and gentle.

I approached this piece as a personal excavation—an exploration of identity, resilience, and the unfolding journey of self-discovery. Yet I hope it remains open to broader interpretation; each viewer may see in it a reflection of their own triumphs, vulnerabilities, and yearnings. At its core, Eclipse of Self speaks to the quiet transformations we undergo when we dare to face our limitations with honesty and emerge with an expanded sense of who we can become.

Historically, the Archibald Prize honors portraiture that not only captures a likeness but resonates with genuine narrative. My intention here is to present a moment in time—a liminal space where darkness and light meet—inviting others to consider the possibility that within our fractured layers, something vital can always take root and grow.

By weaving together these subtle symbols—the whisper of celestial bodies, the gold seam of renewal, and the lion-flower heart of courage—I’ve aimed to create a portrait that offers both personal truth and universal reflection, allowing each viewer to find a part of their own story in its unfolding.
