Original artwork description:

This striking work by Igor Galan, titled Point of Authority, explores the boundary between digital imagery and physical craft. Composed entirely from small hand-painted dots of acrylic and enamel, the artwork mimics the appearance of halftone photography – but every detail has been applied manually, one dot at a time. This labor-intensive technique creates a textured, almost sculptural surface that invites the viewer to reconsider what it means to “see.”

Depicting a woman with a vintage camera towering over the subject, Galan sets up a visual dialogue about gaze, control, and image ownership. His use of minimal color heightens the tension, drawing attention to the viewer’s passive role beneath the dominant female figure. Point of Authority is a bold conceptual and technical statement – ideal for collectors who appreciate both meticulous technique and layered meaning.
