On a gold tondo, a faceless figure, her hair rising like an ultramarine wave: the ocean itself has taken human form. The clock hand resting on her marks the hour of the tide, that suspended moment when the sea chooses to rise or to withdraw.
Like all of Modka’s portraits on a gold ground, the work draws on Byzantine art, which the artist studied in art history at the Sorbonne: gold becomes sacred light, and blue the presence of the soul.
Round canvas, 30.5 cm in diameter.
