Echo Mask

"Echo Mask" is a visual meditation on identity - fragmented, layered, mysterious. The composition etched in black and white, like a fingerprint on ancient stone, depicts intersecting faces, glances that penetrate beyond the surface, and forms that dissolve into symbol. This work offers not a portrait but a presence. Each line is an incision, a dug memory, a sign handed down from generation to generation. The gaze is multi-directed, like a mask looking back to the roots, but also forward - to the unknown. The deep, imperfect texture evokes wood, bone, stone - essential materials in traditional African art, here reinterpreted through a contemporary abstract aesthetic. Between silence and echo, shadow and light, "Echo Mask" offers a visual experience of rare spiritual density. Part of the Africa collection, the work becomes a symbol of the collective human interior, of the archetypal self. A visual totem that demands its place - not just on the wall, but in the consciousness.
