Original Work

Degrees of Kinship

The work explores relations of belonging through a composition reduced to geometric signs and a continuous linear trajectory. The four green circles, tightly grouped, suggest a familial nucleus, while the grey square placed separately in the lower register introduces the idea of a distinct presence nevertheless linked to the same structure. The black line describes an organic contour, like a simplified genealogy, a shared body, or an affective space that includes its elements without rendering them uniform. The calm, even pink ground accentuates the clarity of the forms and the discreet tension among proximity, difference, and common origin. The composition evokes the family as a network of proximities, distances, and affective positions.Technique: acrylic on canvas boardSize: 40 x 40 cmYear: 2026
