Description:
BETWEEN BLOOM AND BONE – Diptych – “What Remains Beneath”
Raw and monochromatic, What Remains Beneath offers an intimate echo of a larger image — a skeletal version, stripped of color, revealing the undercurrent of gesture, structure, and silence.
This drawing stems from the same composition as Threshold in Bloom, yet shifts the focus inward. Without color, the linework becomes central: direct, unfiltered, almost forensic. The mirrored faces, the stacked skulls, the climbing stems — all elements remain, but suspended in a kind of spectral space.
Rather than illustrating a beginning or an end, this piece captures the in-between — the residue of memory before meaning fully forms, or after it fades.
Presented in a signed, limited edition created exclusively for Arteaporte, What Remains Beneath speaks not loudly, but persistently — in the way quiet things do when we stop to listen.
