The portrait as XXL piece: why large scale changes the conversation with the viewer

A large format portrait forces you to live with it. At 30 cm you look at it from the sofa; at 120 cm, it is the one who looks at you when you walk down the hall. This text explains how my process changes when I think big.

Portrait of a young man, bare-chested, against a black background, with a strip of orange light crossing his eyes like a mask

The cinema that raised me: from E.T. to Animal Kinhood.

The films that shaped me growing up — from E.T. and Edward Scissorhands to Bergman, von Trier, and Border — and how the monster, the mask, and the outsider became my way of making portraits.

Ceramic bird sculpture by Alessandro Gallo combining human and animal forms

The animal that looks at us: artists who taught me to dress what was already there.

A personal tour of artists who use animals as a mirror of the human: from Grandville to BoJack Horseman, from Beatrix Potter to Beth Cavener. Why anthropomorphic portraiture matters.
