My work this semester I focus on creating portraiture. I use painte and drowing techinique to fix the model gaze and try to perserve their dignity. Simultaneaously I make evidente the fragility of their being. The face can represent the human condition. My portraits position the gaze as space of contradiction and ambiguity. The portraits are subjects chose to have emotional, culture and political conflicts. The face work as a mirror that cab interrogate the viewer. In these portraits, I have invested in the power of the gaze. Finding intensity and value in the relationship between viewer and subject. I seek a reaction that create a force of impulse. For the observer to discover the inner, silen look, is to realize the we share a common destiny. A reflection on beauty as fragility with eyes open.
