Description from the seller
A face is never just a face.
This painting explores the complexity of identity through fragmented geometry, layered color, and quiet expression. Every shape represents a different aspect of the human experience—memories, emotions, strengths, and vulnerabilities—coming together to form a single presence.
Rather than revealing everything at once, the composition invites the viewer to slow down. As the light changes and the eye moves across the canvas, new relationships between color, form, and expression begin to emerge. The painting evolves with every encounter.
As both an architect and artist, I am fascinated by the balance between structure and emotion. My work combines geometric precision with intuitive brushwork, creating portraits that exist somewhere between reality and abstraction.
I don’t paint people as they look, I paint the complexity of who they are.
