Original artwork description:

"Her Absence"
30x40x1.5 cm
Mixed media (acrylic, collage, pastel) on canvas

"Her Absence" is a poetic and thought-provoking portrait inspired by the timeless profile of Queen Victoria, reimagined through layers of memory and abstraction. This artwork was born from the fascination with how history and identity are never whole but pieced together through fragments, traces, and silences. By intentionally omitting the eyes, the portrait invites you to complete it within yourself—transforming a face into a lingering presence.

Crafted using vintage newspapers, delicate lace, old maps, acrylic, and pastel, this piece merges fragility and strength. Each torn scrap of paper symbolizes impermanence, while the lace whispers of grace and vulnerability. The maps recall invisible journeys, and the collage invites the viewer into the realm where imagination meets remembrance.

Collectors of conceptual art, lovers of Victorian history, admirers of mixed media, and those who appreciate artwork with symbolism and emotional depth.
