Description
Rendered in a stark chiaroscuro of ink and incision, the portrait fixes the viewer with an unblinking gaze that feels both exposed and guarded, as if identity is being held together under pressure. A halo-like arc and floral crown suggest sanctification, yet the surrounding shards and shadowed figures interrupt any comfort, turning the head into a contested site where memory, community, and threat converge. The dense stippling of the face contrasts with the frenetic, webbed background, implying a psyche carved by noise and surveillance, while the hands at the lower edge read as a threshold—protective, pleading, or bracing against what presses in from beyond the frame.
