AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Collector's item.
100% hand-painted on cotton canvas.
This painting should be displayed under UV light for a 100% experience.
Work sent without a frame, in a shipping tube via DHL Express.
Accompanied by COA, a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.

Mr. Skull presents an enigmatic figure that oscillates between the human and the iconic, between the organic and the entirely constructed. The skull, polished like liquid metal, reflects the world around it with an almost photographic accuracy, transforming anatomy into a mirror surface that returns unexpected colors — electric yellows, saturated greens, pinks, and browns — as if each hue were a fragment of identity projected from the outside to the inside.

The figure, dressed in a dark suit that eliminates any bodily detail, reinforces the sense of anonymity and theatricality. Without facial expression, without eyes, without flesh, Mr. Skull becomes a conceptual mirror: a presence that observes and is observed, but never fully reveals itself.
