FACES BEHIND

Artist Statement — Face Behind

Acrylic on canvas, 80 × 120 cm

Face Behind is a confrontation with truth—the kind that

does not announce itself, yet governs everything. This work

speaks to the invisible forces that shape the visible world:

the unseen hands, the silent minds, the hidden influences

that move events, people, and destinies without ever

stepping into the light.

The repeated faces emerge from a field of red, not as

individuals, but as presences. They are watchers, carriers of

knowledge that exists beyond language. Their eyes do not

seek attention; they observe. They know. The absence of

detail is intentional—truth rarely arrives fully revealed. It

comes layered, obscured, demanding stillness and courage

to be felt rather than merely seen.

The red surface holds intensity, life, danger, and power. It is

the color of blood, sacrifice, urgency, and awakening. It

reminds us that behind every structure, every system, every

success or collapse, there is an energy at work—often

ignored, often denied, yet always present. This is the world

behind the curtain, where intention is formed before action,

where influence is decided before outcome.

Face Behind speaks of the forces that guide leaders, shape

societies, and direct paths—whether spiritual,psychological, ancestral, or intuitive. It acknowledges that

the physical world does not operate alone. Every visible

movement is preceded by an invisible cause. Every result

has a source that cannot be touched, only respected.

This piece invites the collector to recognize that power is

not always loud, and influence is not always seen. True

control often exists in silence. True truth often watches

without speaking. Face Behind is a reminder that to

understand the world, one must look beyond what is

presented—and honor the unseen realities that make all

things work.
