Part of the Number Chronicles series, this piece meditates on the cultural superstition surrounding the number 13—a symbol often associated with bad luck, avoidance, and fear. I confront the narrative head-on, reclaiming the number as a site of intrigue and power. Through expressive marks, numerical motifs, and layered meaning, the painting becomes a visual investigation of what society deems unlucky, and how those notions shape perception, architecture, and memory. In Superstition: 13, the taboo becomes a tool for bold expression and reflection.
