In the middle of a dark room, a lone figure sits crouched by a small light. Around him, others stand with their backs to him - shadows fading into shadows. Yet from that one point of light radiates warmth, humanity and hope. The contrasts between black and orange, between distance and proximity, give the work a charged stillness.
The inspiration for this painting comes from the feeling of invisibility in company. Sometimes someone is physically present but emotionally shut out - and just then, one look, one hand, one gesture can make all the difference. The composition consciously places the viewer in that role: you are the one who does see, who recognises the light and can decide to react.
The technique - thick paint textures with warm tones in the centre - emphasises the fragility of the light in contrast to the oppressive darkness. It is an intimate image that carries both sadness and hope.
In an interior setting, this painting acts as a quiet call for empathy and attention. It is a reminder of how important it is to really see what is happening around you.
