Black Market
A3 size Available | Graphite & Acrylic | Fine Art Print, unframed, sealed in a sleeve with a backing board
Black Market is a haunting tribute to the silent weight many men carry. This surrealist piece captures the stoic mask worn by fathers, providers, and men taught to bury their pain beneath the outdated mantra of "man up." The figure, dressed in a suit, merges subtly with a skull, his expression unreadable, his presence ghostlike. A death moth rests on his jacket, a quiet symbol of exhaustion, transformation, and the cost of self-neglect.
Hand-drawn in graphite with an acrylic background, this artwork speaks to the quiet battles fought behind closed doors. Created as a reflection on masculinity and mental health, Black Market invites conversation, compassion, and awareness.
