This striking portrait is divided into a grid-like pattern of geometric shapes, creating a fragmented mosaic effect. The composition is dominated by bold turquoise, orange, and red tones. The figure appears contemplative, with their hand positioned near their chin in a thoughtful gesture. The background shows abstract shapes and silhouettes in darker tones, suggesting other figures or forms in the distance. The fragmented style and grid pattern reinforce the title "misunderstanding," as if viewing the subject through a broken or disjointed lens. The color blocks both define and fragment the features, creating an emotional tension between unity and division within the portrait.
