Hidden in plain sight (2025)Oil painting by Veronica Ciccarese

The contrast between the silence of the mouth and the intensity of the eyes is crucial.
The eyes of a glacial blue and fix the viewer with an almost obsessive or painful intensity are the only part of the face that communicates openly. While the voice is suppressed, the emotion and the soul are alive and urgent and try desperately to communicate.
The painting explores the theme of interrupted communication and the tension between the desire to express itself and the impossibility of doing it. It is a touching portrait of the imprisoned voice and the soul that shouts in silence through the gaze.
The painting was selected and participated in the wonderful collective of Art MEAM Hall 6 at the Meam (European Museum of Modern Art) in Barcelona. It is sold with the classic white wooden frame with glass that the museum appears for its small format collectives. The painting appears as kept in a display case
