“The Black Hole” is an exploration of internal depth, inviting the viewer into a dialogue between surface and substance. Crafted with multiple layers of black paint and resin, this work relies
solely on shades of black and gray, creating a profound contrast between light and shadow. Though seemingly monolithic in its use of color, the resin’s glossy, reflective finish transforms the painting into a mirror, offering a unique and ever-changing interaction with its surroundings. The viewer is not only confronted with the work itself but also with their own reflection, suggesting that the painting is as much about the observer as it is about the observed. “The Black Hole” encourages an inward journey, symbolizing that what we see on the surface is often only the beginning. Beneath the apparent simplicity lies an intricate web of layers, a reminder that depth—whether within the painting or within ourselves—is not immediately visible. This work challenges us to look beyond the superficial, prompting a deeper, more personal reflection.
