ABOUT THE WORK
Midnight in Eden confronts the viewer with a figure who is neither fully mortal nor entirely myth. Standing bare and unflinching, the subject’s body becomes a site of ritual — a living sculpture marked by pigment, shadow, and flame. The painted surface, echoing both ceremonial body art and classical polychrome statuary, reclaims the male nude as a locus of power, enigma, and presence.
His expression resists easy interpretation: not serene, not defiant, but alert — as though guarding the threshold between beauty and danger. The ruffled collar, both adornment and restraint, evokes a baroque theatricality that complicates the image’s restraint. In its tension between formality and intimacy, the portrait offers no easy gaze — instead, it challenges the viewer to sit with ambiguity, to reckon with desire made sacred.
ARTWORK FORMAT AND MATERIALS
Each fine art print is produced on Hahnemühle Baryta Rag — a museum-grade, 100% cotton archival paper renowned for its luxurious surface and luminous detail. Prints are surrounded by a 1.5 inch white border and are hand-signed and editioned by the artist. Works are shipped unframed to ensure preservation and collector flexibility.
