In Stille e. II (“Silence”), the composition unfolds across vertical bands of dense, hand-engraved lines, subtly dividing the space and creating the sensation of layered perception. The figure's lowered gaze and softened expression suggest inwardness, immersed in a private stillness.

The silence evoked by the title is not emptiness, but concentration, a suspended moment where time slows and thought deepens. Through the disciplined repetition of mark-making, Geraci transforms the act of engraving into a meditation on interior life, presence, and the fragile space between visibility and retreat.
