Painting Inner Mask

"Inner Mask" is a visual contemplation of inner silence. The frontal face, bordered by flowing lines and vertical rhythms, seems sculpted in silence - a presence that does not seek the gaze of the other, but the sacred space of its own introspection. Lines etched with graphic precision create a balance between order and poetry, evoking the decorative motifs of tribal painting and the visual language of meditation. Closed eyes, suggested by concentric curves, are at the centre of this state of deep peace: a symbol of trusting within and refusing outside noise. The restrained palette - black and white with filigree textures in the background - emphasises the spiritual gravity of the work. It is not a mask of concealment but of revelation. A mask of inner truth, silently etched. Part of the Africa collection, 'Inner Mask' is a work that slows the pace of any space in which it is placed. It is more than an image - it is a state. It is an invitation to introspection, clarity and reconnecting with the essence of one's being.
