Duality. Loud Silence (2025) Original Pencil Drawing by Tetiana Gryshchenko

Loud Silence is a geometric drawing about a state many will recognise — the moment when you feel the need to speak, and consciously choose not to.

I do not see this as suppression. It is a demanding inner act: the decision to hold tension without releasing it, to allow opposing impulses to coexist without breaking inner coherence. Silence becomes active — intensity and discipline meet, shaping something quieter but deeper than ordinary expression.

This work is part of the Duality series. The ideas behind it — the dual nature of the self, geometry as metaphor, the inevitability of development. More can be found in my essays.
