About this artwork
SILVER is the first picture in the series Crucified or just blocked. The artist plays with the colors gray and silver, as well as gilding with silver leaf around the black and white portrait of a proud, colored woman who is painted on canvas with acrylic paints and brushes. Her portraits in this series appear almost photorealistic.
The artist deals with the position of women in today's society and asks herself and the viewer the question: Strong… and beautiful women: crucified or just blocked?

« The more curious we are, the more creative we become »
My work explores the tension between identity, body, concealment, and transformation.
I don't understand painting as a representation, but as a space for inner movement. As a place where that which cannot be captured becomes visible.
I work in series that develop organically during the process, not from pre-existing concepts. Material plays a central role: acrylic, texture, gold leaf, platinum, and mixed media are not merely decorative elements, but carriers of meaning.
Concealment is not a retreat. It is a deliberate act. It creates distance, protection, and a new way of reading.
Faces and bodies do not appear as surfaces for identification, but rather as spaces for projection. I understand identity not as a state, but as a process, characterized by the tension between visibility and withdrawal.
