A classical portrait photograph is obscured by four bold, gestural strokes of white paint applied directly across the image, fragmenting the face and creating a sense of deliberate concealment. The composition balances the warm, painterly quality of the gestural marks against the cool, controlled photographic base, producing a visual tension between revelation and erasure. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
