In Soft Traces of Being, Taylor blends portraiture with serpentine, symbolic forms to explore the fluid boundaries between identity, instinct, and transformation. Layers of oils, charcoal, paper, and molten wax create a textured, dreamlike surface where human features intertwine with sinuous, eye‑studded shapes. The result is a surreal, psychologically charged composition that suggests both vulnerability and power  a meditation on the hidden forces that shape who we become.
