Original artwork description:

Oil on 300 gms paper.

In this painting, the human body is presented not only as a physical structure, but as a receptacle for something larger, an energy that envelops and sustains it. The subject's posture, with his head bowed and his torso bathed in light and shadow, suggests a moment of introspection, a pause in which the earthly and the spiritual seem to find themselves in a delicate balance.

The golden tones that caress his skin evoke an invisible force that illuminates him from within, while the greens and blues that blend into his contours suggest a connection with the eternal, with that which lies beyond form and time. It is as if his being is permeated by a subtle presence, a divine breath that accompanies him as he walks.

The vibrant and moving background reinforces this sense of transformation, of a world that is not static but dynamic, in which matter and light constantly converse. The loose, expressive brushwork gives the impression that the figure is not isolated, but integrated into something larger, into a flow of energy that transcends it.

Here, the body is not just a body; it is a symbol, a manifestation of a will that guides it. There are no explicit certainties, only a sense of surrender, of trust in what is unseen but felt. In this painting, the human being seems to be in communion with something greater, as if in his silence he finds the certainty of not being alone.
