Warm terracotta and ochre planes fold into a female royal mask, where geometric patterns meet soft, weathered surfaces. Chevrons, spirals, and finely hatched lines create a cultural rhythm across the canvas, while layered paint and subtle highlights give the surface a tactile quality. The features are suggested rather than spelled out — an angular eye, a simplified mouth, a vertical column that reads like a nose — all arranged into a balanced, modern-tribal composition. It’s Plasticism abstraction, with pattern and texture doing most of the talking. A warm, characterful piece that adds quiet presence to a living room, office, or entryway.
