Oil portraits on canvas
Biographical and Expressive Portraits
The faces in this collection are more than records of appearance. Cultural figures, musicians, and imagined portraits become fields of color, memory, and identity, where a gaze can reveal more than a biography.
When a face becomes a landscape
Eliran Bar-On uses resemblance, fragmentation, and color to expose the tension between a public figure and an inner world. Some paintings draw on a familiar cultural memory, while others create a presence that belongs to no single person.
