Blind M.,

oil on canvas, 66” x 60”

 

A representational portrait of a female face veiled with a blindfold stands illuminated within darkness. The tension between what the facial expression of the subject connotes versus what the assumed emotional state of a typical person would be when blindfolded is intriguing to me. I hope to explore this idea further. It seems to evoke a lifestyle of trusting others despite the unknown.
