Hamelink - Shadow

This original work by Bart Hamelink, titled Shadow, is about the dark voice that can keep following a person everywhere. A large black shadow towers over the smaller figure, as if thoughts, insecurity, and fear are growing louder and louder. The texts “Too loud”, “Make it stop” and “I know it’s not true but I hear it anyway” strengthen the idea of an inner struggle: knowing rationally that something isn’t true, but still hearing and feeling it. The shadow thus almost becomes its own character. The raw black-and-white execution, rough brushstrokes, and handwritten words give the work a direct, vulnerable, and expressive appearance. Shadow is executed in acrylic on canvas; it is a unique original, signed by the artist and delivered with a certificate of authenticity. Please note: the interior photos are mood images and serve solely as an impression. Because of the size, the canvas is carefully rolled and safely packed in a sturdy square shipping tube. The work is delivered without the pictured frame and without a stretcher frame.
