HER (2024)

Today I’d like to share a painting with you called “Her”.
It’s a self-portrait of my soul at a certain point in my life — a moment filled with exhaustion and uncertainty during a long search for a job.

I was looking for a graphic design position for a year. It was a tough time — the market was unstable, the competition overwhelming, and the crisis only made things harder.
In this painting, I expressed the feeling of being alone in a crowd — that sense of invisibility. The feeling that recruiters see only a list of skills, not a person.

In her eyes, there’s a question: “When will this end?”

Today, I’m grateful to say that this period is behind me. I’ve found a job and I’m slowly finding balance again. But this painting reminds me of what I went through — and of the quiet strength that carried me through it.
