Oil on canvas

"The Visitor" offers a haunting glimpse into the shadows of human existence. Through the medium of oil on canvas, Dumas captures the essence of a moment frozen in time—a dark alleyway populated by five women in revealing attire, alluding to the harsh realities of sex work.

Yet, beneath the surface lies a deeper exploration of human nature and social dynamics. Dumas's keen eye for detail and her ability to probe the complexities of identity and social roles are on full display, inviting viewers to confront the multifaceted aspects of humanity. Through her art, she challenges us to confront the positives and negatives we have created, shining a light on the intricacies of human experience.
