ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Eyes closed" is a series of 24 drawings that is part of a cycle of research on the In utero death. It shows the faces of infants drawn in pencil and then scratched with Indian ink. Made with a quick and fluid gesture, these drawings are reminiscent of sketches. They evoke a tender memory or an appeased imagination. Eyes closed 1, Indian ink and pen on paper, 29.7*40.5 cm, 2020 - series of 24 drawings
