The work talks about looking away.
This figure, immersed in shadows and lights, is an allegory of impossible love. The direction of her gaze, lost in the horizon, symbolizes the constant search for the gaze of the loved one, that visual connection that never materializes. The absence of return in that gaze creates an empty space, a palpable loneliness that extends beyond the frame, invading the viewer's space. Unrequited love is materialized in this image, where each shadow and each light reflect the emotions that arise when affection does not find an echo. The work, in its silence, speaks of longing and resignation, of hope that persists even when reality seems to deny it. It is a portrait not only of a man and his gaze, but of the human experience in its search for connection, love and understanding.
This work has been generated from old parts of digital images, together with new graphic elements and the latest technology in digital image generation. The appearance is that of a vintage-digital or low graphics work, but printed in museum quality that makes its colors remain for 200 years in museum conditions.
The author reserves the right to produce a printed edition in a smaller size (A4) with a white margin, exclusively.
