Garden of Sleepless Faces

Intricate monochrome linework forms a dense, dreamlike garden of human faces emerging from large, wilted blossoms. A central figure dominates the composition, her hair and petals interwoven while one eye becomes an unnervingly open flower; smaller floral faces surround her in a near-symmetrical arrangement. Droplets, curling stems, seed pods, and star-like marks animate the paper with a haunted botanical rhythm, while delicate hatching and deep black passages give the work the atmosphere of an old apocalyptic engraving.
