About this work

This painting reflects the moment when something once hidden begins to become visible. The sunflower becomes more than a flower: it is a force of growth, carrying a new presence upward into the open sky. The mask-like face suggests an identity taking shape—partly familiar, partly mysterious, and still in the process of becoming.

For me, From Vanishing to Emerging is about transformation: what disappears may not be lost; it may be changing form, gathering strength, and preparing to return in a new way. The work invites us to consider what within ourselves is ready to emerge.
