- HELD BETWEEN SILENCE
Original artwork description
TERAVARNA 2026 INTERNATIONAL JURIED ART COMPETITION 12th PORTRAIT HONORABLE MENTION AWARD winner. This painting captures a fragile moment suspended between fear and tenderness.
The woman’s gaze reflects vulnerability, while the hands holding her head suggest both protection and surrender.
A quiet tear becomes the emotional center of the composition — a silent witness to love, loss, or the need to be held.
Through soft transitions, muted tones, and intimate proximity, the work explores emotional dependence, trust, and the human longing for safety.
It invites the viewer not to judge the moment, but to feel it.
