A Loving Gaze
168x148cm
stylized portrait that blends abstraction with figurative element. The faces are constructed with layered, textured brushstrokes in earthy tones, contrasting with the flat, vibrant blocks of color in the clothing—turquoise, magenta, and green. This juxtaposition creates both depth and visual tension.
The figures are closely positioned, suggesting intimacy or a familial bond, possibly symbolizing motherhood, protection, or generational connection. The simplified forms and distorted proportions lean toward a modern, almost cubist-inspired aesthetic, while the emotional warmth keeps it grounded in human experience.
Overall, the piece feels expressive and narrative-driven, combining modern abstraction with themes of identity, connection, and heritage.
