10 x 15 cm – Oil Paint on Paper

Esra Soytürk’s small-scale work titled “Four Dwarfs” presents a scene where fairy tale elements intertwine with social identities. The figures, distinguished by their red hats, may initially evoke a cheerful narrative; however, the intensity of the lines and the darkened areas hint at suppressed fears and inner unrest. The gas mask form in the right corner of the composition symbolizes a state of defense against the world.

Created with oil paint on paper, this piece intrigues the viewer with its technical depth and thematic irony. The caricatured forms of the figures reflect a detachment from reality and confrontations in subconscious realms. “Four Dwarfs” is not merely a fairy tale figure but a metaphor for individual self-preservation, societal pressure, and internal disintegration.
