Artwork description

Anguish. Self-Portrait merges the artist’s face with layers of memory, myth, and emotion, blurring the boundaries between inner turmoil and outward expression. The eyes, shadowed and weary, emerge from beneath the overlay of a luminous, almost divine visage, suggesting both concealment and revelation.

The golden-hued figure at the center evokes timeless beauty, yet her calm contrasts sharply with the heaviness of the artist’s features. This duality creates tension—between idealized vision and raw humanity, between serenity and suffering. The painter seems both haunted and sustained by the very images he creates.

The composition unfolds as a meditation on identity and vulnerability. Here, anguish is not loud but quiet, etched in overlapping forms that whisper of memory, loss, and persistence. The painting becomes a mirror of the soul, where creation is both a refuge and a reminder of the fragility of existence.
