About this artwork
From the drafts of a certain Julia—found without context, without a response, without certainty of destination—only a trace of words remains. These words, once addressed to an unknown other, return here as material: they form the surface of a face.
The mask is not a portrait, but a projection. It is an attempt to reconstruct an identity from gaps, to create a presence from absence. The written sentences follow the contours of an imagined skin, as… if language itself becomes a body. Yet this face remains fundamentally inaccessible: it is not a memory, but a hypothesis.
Its placement in a small wooden balsa box reinforces this tension between preservation and disappearance. The object seems simultaneously protected and buried, like an archaeological relic of an individual life that can never be fully known. What remains is not Julia herself, but the space between her words—and the imagination that tries to fill this void.

Herman Van Synghel, a seasoned printmaker with a background in graphic design and extensive experience in teaching, employs etching, screen printing, and linocut as his primary mediums. His works unfold through a rigorous, minimalist vocabulary, foregrounding geometric forms—circles, squares, black fields—explored with a conceptual exactitude that tests the delicate tension between structure and intuition. Through symbolic reduction and poetic imagery, he evokes profound meditations on memory, time, and the dualities of existence, inviting viewers into a state of presence and contemplation rather than immediate interpretation.
