Between Stone and Flesh | Anatomy of a Divided Identity

4000 ILS

  • שמן על קנבס
  • 70 × 100 cm
  • 2024

'Between Stone and Flesh' is an expressive portrait of a divided female face. One side carries the identity that already exists, with its cracks and complexity; the other turns toward the figure we imagine ourselves to be. The painting does not choose between them. It lingers in the gap where aspiration, doubt and identity live together, and where beauty is not only aesthetic but a question. A strong visual language and the oil on canvas technique give the two halves a physical presence. Painted in 2024, 70 × 100 cm, signed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity. Suited to a space that wants a work that starts conversations, in a living room, an office or a reading corner, on a wall that keeps the divided face in focus. Available to buy or rent from the studio.

The work does not choose between them, but stays within the space where aspiration, doubt, and identity coexist.
