Curatorial Description:
Thorns of Compassion channels the raw emotional intensity of German Expressionism through a haunting, textured portrait of spiritual agony. With a palette of crimson, ash, and flesh tones, ArNoUx presents a figure bearing a crown of thorns and eyes bloodshot with suffering, yet still tender and reflective. The strokes are thick and visceral, layered with impasto that suggests both physical weight and emotional depth. The background, chaotic yet vibrant, contrasts the somber presence at the center, reinforcing a tension between human pain and divine presence. This piece speaks to sacrifice, endurance, and the silent dignity of grief.
