Features disappear

This work from the “Lost Faces” series presents the body as a silent space of internal conflict, where the face - a symbol of identity - is absent, leaving in its place an unsettling void, or a distorted mass of color, suggesting the disappearance or vanishing of the self.
The hunched figure, in a semi-fetal position, seems to be sheltering itself or shrinking into an invisible pain. This physical closure is not only a sign of weakness, but also an attempt to survive, to hold on in the face of a suffocating psychological or existential pressure. The absence of fine details in the body, and the adoption of simplicity and fluidity, makes the entity more like an idea or a feeling than a specific human being.
The cold blue color that dominates the background creates a floating space, without time or space, as if the character is suspended between two states: Presence and disappearance. On the other hand, the face stands out with a warm/sharp red color, like an open wound or a painful memory that refuses to disappear, so the color contrast becomes an expression of a struggle between inside and outside, between what is hidden and what comes to the surface.
The work doesn't provide an answer, it asks a question: What is left of a person when he loses his features? Does he disappear, or does he turn into pure emotion?
In this series, the face is not meant to be seen, but to be lost... because loss is not just an absence, but an existential state experienced when one is separated from oneself, or when one's identity becomes a burden that one cannot carry.
