A ghostly face — softly rendered in pale flesh tones, its features half-dissolved into the surrounding field — emerges from a busy, layered ground of teal, amber, rust, and gray. Collaged elements press in from above: torn strips of painted texture, black gestural marks, a bold red-orange diagonal, fragments that read as feathers, flags, or brushstrokes torn loose from other works. The face holds its expression — calm, slightly absent — while the world around it conducts its noisy business, the interior stillness of a person in the middle of everything.
