Link My Heart 

This is Yoko d'Holbachie's “Link My Heart," an oil on canvas painting which presents a whimsical and somewhat unsettling character that invites us to consider themes of identity and connection. D’Holbachie, deeply influenced by surrealism and pop art, crafts a world that seems both familiar and alien. The figure is adorned with what appears to be an eccentric collection of decorative items. Her expression is a mix of invitation and caution. The internal organs are exposed through the torso, suggesting a vulnerability and a raw honesty. The octopus-like legs subvert traditional representations of the body, and give us a glimpse into a world where the boundaries of identity are fluid. The artist seems to ask: how do we connect our hearts, our true selves, in a world that often demands conformity? "Link My Heart" suggests that our connections, though sometimes strange and unexpected, are what make us uniquely human. D'Holbachie offers not just a portrait, but an emotional landscape reflecting the complexities of selfhood and belonging.
