MANTIS (2025)

original artwork by BRZA DOLL
triptych on wooden board, acrylic paint, layered mediums & collage

15.3 x 15.3 x 2.5cm (x3 boards)

MANTIS is a small-scale triptych created via a cycle of resistance and re-emergence.
Each panel began as a different painting- layers of colour, gesture & memory that refused to disappear.

The neon central form anchors the work in stillness and movement at once — a figure that feels alert, watchful, alive. Thick collage textures and luminous hues catch changing light, revealing depth beneath the surface.

Each 15 cm board is 2.5 cm thick, giving the set a sculptural presence on the wall. No framing is needed — the edges are painted and artworks are numbered and signed on the reverse.

MANTIS celebrates the act of working until something pushes back — finding meaning in what won’t quite let go.
