Description from the seller

► “Between Ruin and Touch” – Original Painting

Original, handmade painting by Daniel Witschkanow, 2026

Description

This expressive triptych connects three intense emotional states into a cohesive visual narrative. In a restrained, yet extremely powerful black-and-white language, faces emerge from fine, impulsive lines and condensed color fields, hovering between vulnerability, longing, and inner tension. The composition feels raw, direct and at the same time poetic.

The central work forms the emotional center of the triptych: Two people meet in a moment of extreme closeness, almost like before a kiss. This intimate tension is framed by the two outer paintings, each showing individual faces with palpable inner unrest and emotional heaviness. Thus a tense dialogue between loneliness and connection, between distance and touch, between inner pain and human closeness arises.

The special effect of this ensemble lies in its immediacy. The linear, almost nervous thread language lends the faces something fugitive and at the same time something deeply real. Depending on the viewing distance, the expression and intensity of the figures change, revealing the triptych’s ever-new details and emotional layers. A striking unique piece with strong presence for modern interiors, collectors of contemporary art, or expressive gallery spaces.

Seller's Story

Daniel Witschkanow is a German artist with a Bachelor of Arts in Design and a particular passion for contemporary portrait painting. He early on autodidactically engaged with various painting techniques and sold his first works already at the age of 14. After completing his studies with concentrations in CGI, film and photography, he devoted himself entirely to fine art. At the center of his work is the human being—not as a mere representation, but as a bearer of emotions, memories and inner tensions. His portraits move between figurative precision and experimental dissolution. This exact tension gives his works a distinctive expressive power and emotional depth. A central feature of his art is the specialization in the thread technique he further developed as well as the expressive smoky technique. Through targeted use of glazes, painting media and flowing structures, unique surfaces arise where control and chance combine in impressive ways. The color seems to flow across the canvas, to hover, or to dissolve almost texturally into the motif. Daniel Witschkanow deliberately works experimentally and combines in his works different materials and forms of expression. In addition to acrylic and glaze he also works with watercolor, oil and charcoal, giving his works additional depth, multiplicity and an unmistakable character. Each work is a unique piece and an expression of an ongoing artistic engagement with identity, transience and the emotional complexity of the human being.
