Artwork description
An original, raw mixed-media artwork on heavy paper (56 × 76 cm). The Hanged man is a visceral exploration of systemic confinement and subconscious weight.
At the core of the composition hangs a severely damaged torso—devoid of limbs and facial features—trapped within a rigid network of ten binding ropes. Nine taut lines fix the entity from the flanks, while the tenth tightens into a central noose around the neck. Stripped of the ability to fight or flee, the broken entity bleeds heavily, dripping directly into a churning inferno of black ink and dense charcoal at its base. As the figure burns and dissolves from below, the piece captures the exact threshold between total destruction and ultimate liberation.
