In this painting, I present an abstract and compelling scene of two human figures, without being depicted literally or explicitly. Their presence is suggested by dark handprints and shadowy shapes that seem to press against a transparent, almost glassy layer. The composition is composed of vertical bands of pink, purple, green, blue, and yellow, reminiscent of water, steam, and light flowing along wet walls. These vertical structures reinforce the sense of isolation and intimacy, as if the space is narrow and enclosed. The surface appears faded and layered, evoking associations with condensation, moisture, and movement. The hands function as the most human element in the work. They seem to seek contact, support, or proximity, yet remain separated by an invisible barrier. This creates a tension between proximity and distance, between physical presence and emotional elusiveness. The painting is not a realistic scene, but a psychological and symbolic image. It evokes themes such as vulnerability, intimacy, privacy, and anonymity. The shower room becomes a transitional place here: a space where layers disappear, but where people are simultaneously confronted with themselves and others.
Why collect this work?
Narrow columns of intense colour turn several hand-like silhouettes into interrupted evidence of bodies, making the image less a scene than a test of what can remain legible through visual interference.
- Working under the name MikoArt, Miechel Kockelkoren describes the image as two figures separated by a transparent barrier. That stated intention clarifies the emphasis on contact, although the pictured forms remain too fragmented to fix a single narrative.
- In the photograph, dark palms surface near the upper half while the lower area thickens into blackened blocks and streaks. Their unequal spacing creates separate zones of pressure rather than a shared gesture.
- Catalogued as a 2020 giclée on canvas, the work uses digital printing to hold luminous colour beside repeated, degraded-looking marks. The photograph documents these contrasts, but not the print’s exact colour or physical surface.
- The work provides a focused case for considering how a bodily sign can be made both emphatic and anonymous. Its grid treats visibility as something filtered, partitioned, and potentially withheld.
