The Devided Man (2018)Oil painting
by Roman Sedlak
£1,530.71
Original artwork description
In The Divided Man, Roman Sedlák presents a hauntingly elegant figure caught in the act of becoming — or unraveling. Constructed through a series of layered, rib-like forms, the body appears both architectural and organic, as though it were formed from a series of precise incisions or the echoes of past selves.
Rendered in cool grayscale against a void-like black background, the figure seems to emerge from darkness while simultaneously dissolving into it. The interplay of shadow and structure creates a rhythm of repetition that hints at themes of fragmentation, identity, and transformation.
This work balances a sense of order with quiet unease. The minimalist palette enhances its meditative quality, while the geometric deconstruction invites viewers to reflect on the layers we build to shield, define, or divide ourselves.
