About the Item
This expressive painting is a striking blend of various artistic techniques and materials, creating a layered, dynamic composition. The artwork prominently features multiple images of a woman's face, dispersed across the canvas in varying sizes and orientations. These images overlap and intersect, giving the impression of movement and fragmentation, as if capturing different moments or facets of the same subject.
The painting is executed on a background that is itself a collage, incorporating pieces of target paper traditionally used for shooting practice. These elements introduce an intriguing context to the work, as the target paper, complete with visible bullet holes, adds a raw, gritty texture to the piece. The use of these materials suggests themes of vulnerability, confrontation, and the intersection of art and violence. The collage elements are overlaid with expressive brushstrokes in bold red, black, and white, creating a stark contrast that emphasizes the intensity and emotional weight of the piece.
The presence of bullet holes in the target paper, some of which align with the images of the woman's face, introduces a haunting narrative of destruction and resilience. The red paint, suggestive of both passion and violence, splashes across the surface, mimicking blood or battle scars, enhancing the painting’s dramatic effect. The entire composition feels urgent and chaotic, with a palpable tension between the beauty of the human form and the violence implied by the target and bullet holes. This piece powerfully explores the fragility and strength of its subject, using a unique combination of collage and expressive painting techniques to convey a profound emotional impact.

YOU Never Told Me You Love Me - Oil on Paper, Abstract Painting, 2024
Located in London, GB
"You Never Told Me You Love Me" (2024) is an abstract geometric painting where muted tones of black, light grey, and dusty pink become a visual metaphor for absence and longing. The work speaks of unspoken words and the silences that often define relationships as much as declarations do. Through the quiet geometry of form and the delicate tension of color, the painting captures the fragility of love, the ache of loss, and the insecurities that linger when affection remains unexpressed.
Exhibited in Paris at the Romanian Cultural Institute (Brancusi Inspire, 2024), this piece connects deeply personal emotion with a broader international dialogue on abstraction and vulnerability. Direct from the artist’s studio, it stands as both a private confession and a universal meditation on silence and desire.
Title: "You Never Told Me You Love Me"
Medium: Oil on paper
Dimensions: 41 x 31 cm (A3)
Year: 2024
Condition: New
Exhibition history: Brancusi Inspire, Macadam Gallerie – Romanian Cultural Institute, Paris, June–September 2024
