I always wanted to be a painter

For moments when words fall short - grief, transformation, becoming - this card offers a companion for the in-between. There is a face behind the veil, and the veil is paint. In I Always Wanted to be a Painter (2021), Noah Latif Lamp blurs the line between self and other, image and implication. The portrait trembles between innocence and dread, suggestion and refusal. It’s a meditation on what we inherit, who we resemble, and how creation and complicity sometimes share a brush. A card for those asking where the self begins - and who it echoes.
