About this artwork

Find the other,
look for the portrait in a stain of ink, walnut stain or acrylic wash,
the series was born during a period of confinement? when it is felt the need to see the other
to distinguish the features of his face or to linger on his gaze.
throughout the series, I remember a magnificent exhibition at the Louvre on the "Fayoums", a collection of paintings dating back to Roman Egypt, executed in the first century, from the end of the… reign of the Roman emperor Tiberius , until the 4th century. These are painted funeral portraits inserted into the strips at the level of the mummy's face.
