Psychoanalysis sulblimation
In psychology, sublimation is a mature type of defense mechanism, in which socially unacceptable impulses or idealizations are transformed into socially acceptable actions or behavior, possibly resulting in a long-term conversion of the initial impulse. Sigmund Freud believed that sublimation was a sign of maturity and civilization, allowing people to function normally in culturally acceptable ways.

Self-portrait without face N ° 1
Oil on wood
Undo the mask
the ego
The falsehood, the violence.
The constant questions about the human being, added to my philosophy of life,
and spiritual beliefs have led me to conceive a good
and evil duality that inhabits the human being.
This instinctive violence is hidden under the apparent
Release the soul
Accept our mistakes, our duality.

Very cool concept. I think it makes sense what you say about our good and evil duality.
Excellent job on developing this idea. Well done!

I love this very much, @indianapatt :) You are super talented and very thoughtful, I love the exploration of duality that you delved into with this piece. How true that we all must shed part of our duality, and let go of our masks, of our faces, and be a little bit more true through the real words, our actions <3...
Gorgeous presentation of the step by step process, as well ! And I love all the close up views of this fantastic self portrait at the end of the post, too :D
Really, really gorgeous work <3 I love the composition, the colours, the pose of the figure.... You are communicating so much emotions with a faceless portrait ! Wonderful work !!!!
