Silent Alienation (2023)Mixed-media painting
by Gela MIKAVA

From the Alienation series, this 80×100 cm work explores a quiet, distant figure dissolving into pale yellows, reds, and blues. The body becomes gesture and residue rather than form — drips, smears, and blurred marks trace the psychological distance between presence and disappearance.

The painting sits between abstraction and figuration, between identity and erasure. The stripped-down palette amplifies the emotional restraint, while the dripping pigments create a tension between control and collapse. Both intimate and cinematic, this piece invites contemplation and stillness.
