Awestruck

Awestruck

“Voices rise and bodies collide,
A dance of chaos where fears reside.
Light and shadow merge in despair,
The human struggle laid bare in the air.”

Awestruck  is executed in mixed media on paper, employing expressive brushwork and bold, contrasting hues to evoke raw human emotion. The composition leans toward expressionism, with abstracted, almost gestural figures rendered in energetic strokes that suggest movement, tension, and communal transcendence. The interplay of saturated yellow and deep blue generates visual rhythm and symbolic duality — light versus shadow, presence versus void. The layering and textural variations hint at printmaking influences, possibly monotype or stencil techniques, adding a tactile quality to the image. The piece occupies a space between figurative abstraction and contemporary narrative art, inviting viewers into a shared emotional state rather than a literal scene.
