Reflect by Sara Modiano. Size: 12" x 24" x 3". Edition 1 of 2. Color Photograph mounted on plexiglass. Signed, titled, dated, and numbered verso. 2007

This striking artwork portrays a figure coated entirely in a metallic silver sheen, evoking a sense of timelessness and otherworldly beauty. The subject's face, captured in a moment of raw emotion, exudes a powerful expression that commands attention. The smooth, reflective surface of the skin contrasts starkly with the dark, unobtrusive background, creating an intense focus on the figure itself. The artist’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in the subtle play of light and shadow across the contours of the face and shoulders, enhancing the sculpture-like quality of the work. The choice of a monochromatic palette accentuates the emotional depth, allowing the viewer to engage with the underlying themes of vulnerability and transcendence. This piece stands out not only for its aesthetic execution but also for its evocative exploration of human expression, making it a compelling study of both form and sentiment. Its ability to merge the boundaries between sculpture and painting marks it as a unique and thought-provoking work of art.

This artwork presents a stark and mesmerizing image of a bald figure, completely covered in a shimmering silver coating, set against a deep blue backdrop. The subject's expression is one of intense emotion, captured with closed eyes and a slightly open mouth, suggesting an overwhelming sense of release or ecstasy. The artist's choice to use metallic hues accentuates the contours and musculature, adding a surreal and otherworldly quality to the piece. The silver body against the dark background creates a striking contrast, with the light reflecting off the metallic surface, enhancing the figure's dynamic presence. This work compels viewers to explore themes of transformation, vulnerability, and the transcendence of the human form. Its bold composition and evocative expression make it a powerful study of both physicality and emotion.
