Curatorial Statement:
At This Hour, I Carry the Expression is a solemn, introspective portrait immersed in layers of emotional weight. The figure emerges as if through fog or memory, surrounded by vertical strokes of green, neon yellow, and midnight blue—evoking a dense spiritual forest or cascading emotion.
ArNoUx captures the fragility of identity in transition. The face—outlined with translucent greys and blues—appears both fading and forming, as if the subject is caught mid-thought or mid-surrender. The thick, horizontal blue stroke across the neck punctuates the piece like a sealed silence or a buried cry.
The painting resists completion, as is common in ArNoUx’s oeuvre. Instead, it becomes a living document of a moment—a sacred pause, an unresolved prayer, a quiet insistence on being seen without explanation.
