When appropriating an artist's painting, it's crucial to bring a fresh perspective to the work. Transforming Van Gogh's portraiture with a polygonal lens prompts a deep exploration of historical context, color theory, design elements, gesture, and symbolism. The process of reification underscores the significance of representing the subject's identity through precise choices in line and color. Reification and atemporality breath life into something new.

"I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it." — Vincent van Gogh
