In "Hidden Love", an intriguing interplay of visibility and concealment unfolds. The portrait of a woman appears only partially, caught between narrow vertical planes that act as walls or veils. Her face, softly lit and extremely refinedly rendered, exudes a quiet intensity. The half-hidden gaze suggests both proximity and distance - as if she wants to show her deepest feelings only in fragments.
The composition is supported by a minimalist colour palette of soft cream tones and subtle reliefs, in which abstract shapes of hearts loom. These hearts are not showy, but rather enclosed and almost fused with the background, as symbols of emotions that exist but do not dare to fully break through. The relief creates a tangible stratification that perfectly fits the theme of hidden desires and the fragile boundary between openness and silence.
The title "Hidden Love" refers not only to a romantic emotion, but also to the universal experience of feelings that must remain hidden for whatever reason: love that is not expressed, affection that nestles silently in gestures, or passion experienced only in thought.
This work invites the viewer to dwell on that which is not immediately visible or expressed, and shows how beauty can lie in mystery, in the unspoken, and in the intimate interplay between revealing and concealing. Modern abstract. Three-dimensional. Geometry. Heart.
