A portrait shaped through restraint rather than force. The figure emerges from layers of charcoal, held together by deliberate marks and areas of near absence.

The softness of the transitions contrasts with the tension in the posture — suggesting a quiet form of resistance: internal, persistent, and deeply human.

The work explores how presence can exist without declaration, and how strength can live inside stillness.
