About the work

A boldly gestural zinc etching divided into two registers, the upper half revealing a roughly hewn human face emerging from dense, frenzied hatching, while the lower section dissolves into a field of energetic, chaotic marks. The raw, scratched quality of the lines conveys an intense psychological charge.

Marwan Kassab Bachi (Syria).
