"The Collective Gaze: Urban Faces in Ink" Drawing

I am an Italian emerging artist working primarily with ink and acrylic markers on canvas. My work focuses on exaggerated faces, distorted expressions, and bold graphic lines as a way to explore human psychology, social tension, and emotional discomfort. Through a cartoon-like and pop-influenced visual language, I translate everyday feelings such as anxiety, irony, confusion, and identity into playful yet unsettling imagery. I am interested in the balance between humor and unease, using caricature as a tool to reflect on how people present themselves and how they are perceived within a crowd. Each piece is intuitive, direct, and centered on expression rather than realism.
