This work explores presence as a quiet and unstable state. The figure is highly simplified and slightly distorted, positioned between recognizability and ambiguity. The gaze does not engage in dialogue; it observes, hesitates, and remains partially withdrawn. The reduction of form and color removes narrative and shifts attention away from emotion toward inner tension. A seemingly calm structure holds a fragile balance, where vulnerability is present without dramatization. The painting is made with acrylic on canvas. The artwork measures 30×60 cm, with a depth of 3,5 cm, It will be shipped ready to hang, securely packed in a cardboard box.

She creates a space where the viewer can focus on the core elements — form, color, contrast — and feel their purity and power. Simplicity of form and bright colors are Veronika's way of expressing ideas with maximum strength and directness. Through concise geometric shapes and vibrant contrasts, she aims to draw attention to the essence of the work, where each element has its own meaning. Simplicity allows the viewer to easily perceive the work while also providing space for deep interpretation and personal sensations. Bright colors emphasize the dynamics, enhance the emotional response, and make the painting vivid and energetic, creating a visual force that resonates with the viewer.
