Description

The Faces series explores the expressive power of the human face. Precise yet bold brushstrokes give the portraits an emotional openness that leaves room for personal interpretation. The depicted individuals radiate sensuality, depth, and vulnerability — detached from rigid roles or fixed identities.

Faces Pt. 1–5 focus on people of diverse genders and cultural backgrounds. Their faces are brought together within a shared visual space — a silent message of equality, empathy, and connection.

The core message: We are all human. Love is love.

The series was inspired by the work of Norwegian artist Henrik Aa. Uldalen, whose painterly approach to the human psyche and fragility has left a lasting impression.
