"Behind Closed Eyes" explores the delicate space between vulnerability and protection. The portrait emerges through a quiet balance of realism and abstraction, where expressive linework gently obscures the face without concealing its presence. The figure folds inward, creating a sense of intimacy that invites contemplation rather than explanation.
The work reflects those moments when we retreat into ourselves—not out of fear, but to protect what is most authentic. It suggests that not everything hidden is meant to disappear; sometimes distance allows us to reconnect with our inner voice. Rather than asking to be understood immediately, Behind Closed Eyes offers a quiet invitation to slow down, to look with empathy, and to recognize the strength that exists within vulnerability.
Printed as a large-format 70 × 100 cm fine art print using archival pigment inks on museum-grade Hahnemühle German Etching paper. Each print is individually signed and numbered by the artist as part of a strictly limited edition of 50 prints.
This is not about hiding. It is about protecting what matters most.
