Untitled 2 (Woman with Doves)

A solemn, icon-like face anchors the composition while a riot of white doves gathers and unfurls above and around her, as though the mind has become an aviary of thoughts seeking flight. The ochre-gold ground reads like weathered fresco, its speckled texture lending the scene a tactile sense of time—both sanctified and bruised—against which the cool, inked contours of wings and feathers vibrate. The birds oscillate between tenderness and insistence: perched at the throat like a held breath, circling the head like memory, they suggest peace not as a simple emblem but as a fragile covenant continually negotiated within.
