Composed through dense cross-hatched line work, this right-facing profile emerges gradually from a field of incised marks. Light is carved from repetition, allowing the features to surface with quiet precision. The red ground intensifies the intimacy of the image, creating a sense of warmth and psychological stillness.

Rooted in classical printmaking, the work reflects Simone Geraci’s disciplined engagement with etching, where patience and repetition become a language for introspection and presence.
