Knowingly And Unknowingly Misfortune Printmaking Figurative Printmaking

Rendered in a hushed spectrum of charcoal and ash, the solitary figure emerges like a memory pressed into paper—present, yet withholding. The animal-eared hood and the face wrapped in folds of fabric turn identity into a deliberately obscured surface, while the soft, smoky ground swallows edges and insists on psychological space over literal setting. Light grazes the jacket’s creases and the small cup cradled in both hands, elevating a modest gesture into a quiet rite of endurance, as if warmth and selfhood are being protected against an unnamed cold. The work reads as a portrait of anonymity in contemporary life—tender, guarded, and hauntingly intimate in its refusal to fully reveal.
