Untitled 6 Mixed-Media Figurative Painting

Two monumental, mask-like figures face each other in a hush of charged intimacy, their features distilled into calm ovals and watchful, half-lidded eyes that seem to read more than they reveal. The dense web of black linework—part skin, part night—creates a tactile cosmos within each body, while the pale background and crescent above open a quiet, lunar space where silence becomes a third presence. Between them, a slim corridor of negative space behaves like a breath or a threshold, suggesting that connection is forged not through certainty but through the careful negotiation of distance. The crescent’s suspended arc crowns the encounter like a benediction, turning the scene into a meditation on duality: self and other, shadow and illumination, the private interior and the shared ritual of seeing.
