16 W x 12 H x 2 D inches

This black-and-white mixed media artwork features two men facing each other with their foreheads touching, conveying an intimate and emotionally charged connection. The figures are rendered in a soft grayscale photographic style, their skin and muscle tones subtly visible. One man gently holds the other’s head, emphasizing tenderness and closeness. At the center of the composition, where their faces meet, an aggressive burst of textured brushstrokes dominates the space. The strokes are layered in sharp, chaotic crisscross patterns of black, white, and grey paint, creating a dramatic contrast with the smoothness of the rest of the image. The background features smudges and patches of abstract textures, further enhancing the sense of tension and complexity. This central abstraction partially obscures their facial features, introducing a sense of disruption or emotional fragmentation into an otherwise calm, connected pose.
