Velum Oblitorum (2025)Gouache painting by Zhana Viel
18 x 24 x 0.1cm (unframed)
£200
Original artwork description
Emerging from the edge of vision, a solitary face drifts between sky and earth, shadow and light. This painting invites the viewer into a liminal space — a place where boundaries dissolve, and presence becomes both question and answer. The eye, red as flame and deep as night, seems to witness more than time allows. Textured colour fields — rich in blues, greens, and gold — suggest not landscape, but memory, dream, or spirit. It is as though the figure is caught between realms: seen, yet secret; silent, yet knowing.
A threshold. A watcher. A mystery waiting to be met.
