Those feelings were expressed by his series of paintings from 2006 up to 2010 mostly showing his plural self-portraits in an effort to escape from those fears by merging all them people in the world as herself.
Since 2010 Naomi wanted to express herself through his own experience and as a result, she changed his art expression by using ready-made images from fashion advertisements or interior magazines into his paintings, trying to understand painting composition rather than the contents themselves
From 2012 and on Naomi obviously feels better about herself, even though she is always interested of other people’s opinions, so she returned to his original expression in art, painting the way that she should connect to the societies he is involved with!
Below you can enjoy his 2013 series of paintings.
