Groenewald utilizes the velvety texture of soft pastel on tinted paper to build a composition that feels both sacred and visceral. The work centers on a portrait that merges traditional iconography with horror elements, using geometric interactions and floral accents to balance the weight of its darker themes. The choice of tinted paper provides a mid-tone depth, allowing the highlights to glow with a spiritual intensity while shadows harbor more unsettling, unseen details.

This piece functions as a collage of human experiences, where belief systems and internal growth are mapped out through symbolic representation. By blending Eastern art influences with a raw, contemplative exploration of the body, the artist invites a look at the duality of existence—the harmony found in diversity and the inevitable presence of the monstrous within the divine.
