About this artwork
In this acrylic painting, I explore the moment between emergence and disappearance. I approach the fragments of faces rising from the dark ground as traces of an encounter or an image held in memory. I bring certain areas into focus while allowing others to remain unresolved.
The intensity of yellow and the fine lines extending across the surface create both connections and boundaries between the figures. I want the viewer’s gaze to move from one… face to another, pausing in the spaces between them.
As part of my series The Passage, this work considers transition as something we experience within ourselves and in our relationships with others. For me, a portrait holds an identity still taking shape.

M. Kara (formerly Müberra Karamanoğlu, also spelled Muberra Karamanoglu) is a Turkish-born artist working between New York and Ankara.Her work centers on layered portraiture, where the figure is treated as a surface—cut, veiled, and transformed through material.
Using burlap, rope, thread, tulle, and fabric collage, Kara builds compositions that shift and interrupt the image. Rooted in personal memory and textile traditions of the Black Sea region, these materials carry both physical and emotional weight.
Through layering, cutting, and stitching, the figure emerges through tension rather than control. Her works exist between visibility and concealment, where identity remains unresolved and in constant flux.
