In "New Person, Same Old Mistakes," Keyishian creates a visually rich and layered composition, where the darker forms orbit within a vivid field of color. The deep blues and bold outlines draw the viewer in, inviting closer inspection of the intricate details hidden within - subtle hues and delicate brushstrokes that reveal themselves gradually. There’s an underlying tension between the dominant shapes and the vibrant, swirling background, echoing the introspective mood of the Tame Impala song that shares its title. Like the music that inspires her, Keyishian’s work here balances control and spontaneity, structure and freedom, resulting in a piece that is complex and harmonious, captivating viewers with its rhythm and depth.
