Shy | 60 x 90 cm

Sometimes the strongest statement is made in silence.

Shy captures the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength. Built layer by layer from carefully selected pieces of upcycled leather, this contemporary artwork reveals a figure that seems both present and elusive. The subtle textures, soft contours, and interplay of light and shadow invite the viewer to look closer and discover new details with every glance.

The natural character of the leather adds warmth, depth, and authenticity, while the minimalist composition creates a sense of calm and intrigue. Shy is not merely a portrait, but an interpretation of emotion — a quiet moment translated into material.
