Title:  The Dissolution of the Ego

Year: 2023

Size: 21 x 30 cm

Technique: Acrylic on canvas

In The Dissolution of the Ego, the recognizable features of a face begin to fade, as if identity itself were dissolving.
Through this disappearance, what remains is not emptiness, but an intimate presence — the subtle essence that lies beyond form.
The work explores the fine line between individuality and universality, portraying the moment when the self merges with something larger, quieter, and timeless.
Created with acrylic on canvas, it embodies a meditative balance between color and absence, gesture and silence.
