Manicis IV · Umbra

Manicis IV · Umbra: is part of the series Manicis, a deeply personal exploration of identity and longing, captured in thirteen intimate paintings. By searching the tension between freedom and restraint, beauty and pain, hope and despair, light and darkness, Robbin Veldman lays bare an inner conflict: two boys, bound both from and to each other, caught in brushstrokes. The whispering silence of unspoken, unattainable desire, captivated in oil paint.
