AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This work explores a primordial, fragile, and universal memory: childhood as a trace rather than an image. The figure is not drawn but imprinted, generated by the direct contact of the acrylic-soaked object with the surface. This makes the subject a ghostly presence, a fingerprint rather than a representation.
The technique eliminates gesture control and relies entirely on the physical relationship between body, object, and surface, transforming memory into a kind of emotional 'residue.' The dominant white amplifies the sense of emptiness, silence, and temporal distance, while the irregular black suggests an imperfect memory, worn but still alive.
It is a work that speaks of absence, growth, and the loss of innocence, where childhood is not told but evoked as a trace that reemerges.
