Original artwork description:

Zakhar Shevchuk’s “Where I Cannot Hide” explores the human condition through a bold, symbolic pose – a solitary figure bent forward, like a diver or athlete seconds before the plunge. With rich textures, abstract gestures, and a vivid yet shadowed palette, the painting reflects the inner friction of confronting oneself fully.

Shevchuk ties this moment of physical contortion to a Jungian confrontation with the self: to look inward is to risk seeing both the light and the shadow. The painting becomes a metaphor for the emotional leap we must take when masks fall away and truth surfaces.

Painted in 2025 using acrylic and spray on canvas (70x60x2 cm), this original artwork is currently for sale and well-suited to collectors of introspective and symbol-driven contemporary expression.
