About This Piece

Two figures, stripped of identity — no faces, only outlines. And yet the bodies say everything. The man stands rigid, his back slightly turned, an arm raised as if to block. The woman moves toward him, then stops mid-gesture.

I froze them there on purpose, and left the question open. Is it rejection? Resistance? Or an intimate kind of connection that only looks like distance? I give no answer. Some will see conflict, others tenderness, and whatever you see says as much about you as about them. The ambiguity is the work; it becomes a mirror for your own thoughts on love, distance, and the fragile balance between two people.

Sharp black on white, printed on fine Fabriano paper — duality made visible: presence and absence, closeness and distance.

The seventh in my Human series. A limited-edition graphic work. Signed.

Studio letters

I send occasional letters from the studio — no noise, just the work and what’s behind it.
