“Did You Brush?” uses humor and discomfort to reflect on self-awareness, presentation, and the everyday rituals tied to identity. Painted directly onto a mirror, the piece forces the viewer into the work itself — turning a simple question into a moment of confrontation and reflection.

The fragmented face and exaggerated mouth symbolize the parts of ourselves we try to fix, hide, or maintain before facing the world. By using a mirror as the surface, the artwork blurs the line between observer and subject, reminding us that the smallest daily habits can reveal deeper truths about care, confidence, and how we see ourselves.
