Composition in repose. 40 x 40 cm. Oil on linen.
The figure lies calmly, eyes closed, suspended between sleep and complete stillness. The blue and white stripes in the background, a purely compositional resource, create movement and bring dynamism to the space, contrasting with the body’s stillness.
This compositional exercise explores the relationship between figure and environment, with precise, fragmented brushstrokes building a scene full of tonal richness. The result is a visual pause, inviting the viewer to stop and reflect, discovering their own narrative in the blend of light, color, and texture.
