This portrait shows a mysterious woman, half in shadow, half in light. Her striking red lips create a dramatic accent in contrast to the dark tones of her outfit and the neutral, slightly faded background. Her severe black hat and wavy hair give her an aura of elegance and mystery. The geometric lines - a vertical separation in black and white and a red area in the background - reinforce the tension between clarity and mystery. In the background, shadowy figures can be recognised, appearing as shadows and reinforcing the impression that the woman exists in a world of her own, in which she silently and expressively casts a spell over the observer. "The Mask of Silence" captures the ambivalence of distance and presence and invites us to reflect on identity and hidden histories. It is one of the first works from the "New Faces" series from 2024.
