Original artwork description:

Silenced is an abstract portrait on paper that explores the tension between expression and restraint. Layers of acrylic, ink, and pencil build a vivid interplay of color and gesture, creating a figure that feels both present and partially obscured. The saturated blues, violets, and greens hold an emotional charge, while the softer pastel tones introduce a quiet counterbalance.

The composition moves between clarity and dissolution, suggesting the complex experience of holding words, stories, or truths beneath the surface. Linear marks trace the edges of thought, while broad strokes offer a sense of release. The work carries a contemporary sensibility that resonates in intimate spaces and curated collections.

Materials used:

Acrylic, ink, pencil
