A protective gesture held at a distance, where the intimate disguises itself as a familiar object in order to unsettle the viewer’s expectations.

Oil on Canvas

Here, Jean depicts a pink hand against a green background, holding a still-wrapped condom with chopsticks. Through its painterly rendering, the object comes to resemble a ravioli, blurring visual reference points and subverting the viewer’s expectations. This formal shift transforms a symbol of protection into an image that is both familiar and unsettling. The careful, distanced gesture highlights the lingering discomfort surrounding intimacy, desire, and relational norms, revealing the tension between what is collectively valued and what is preferred to remain unspoken.
