In Dinner (Party), two wax figures feel animated as they sit across from one another in a stylized, almost theatrical setting. Perched on elegant, mid century modern turlip chairs they appear both poised and precarious—caught somewhere between performance and vulnerability. Their tangled, thread-like bodies and exaggerated features evoke a sense of playful absurdity, while their hollow gazes hint at something more uneasy beneath the surface.
The vivid, artificial green backdrop frames the pair like actors under a spotlight, emphasizing the staged nature of their encounter. Though positioned face-to-face, the figures seem emotionally out of sync, their gestures looping inward rather than reaching across the small table that separates them. Individual quirks—distinct hairstyles, colors, and accessories—suggest personality, yet connection remains elusive.
Balancing humor with quiet tension, Dinner (Party) explores the fragile choreography of social interaction: the ways we present ourselves, the roles we inhabit, and the subtle distance that can persist even in moments meant for closeness.
