Two large, highly stylised faces come close together in “Couple 2026” by Susanne Butcher. On the left, flowing green and turquoise forms frame a pale face, while the figure on the right has a yellow head outlined in bold blue. The black background cuts between the profiles, making the vivid colours stand out sharply.
Large eyes, prominent mouths and displaced facial features give both figures an intense, distinctive presence. Red, pink, white and turquoise passages are interrupted by black scribbles, incised marks and visible layers of paint. Green drips running down the right-hand figure contrast with the broad, curved strokes surrounding the figure on the left.
The title invites us to see the two as a couple, yet their relationship remains open to interpretation. The closeness of the faces may feel both intimate and charged, while the exaggerated features introduce an offbeat humour. The horizontal 120 × 100 cm format gives the figures space side by side, while the close cropping keeps attention on their encounter.
