Artwork Statement
Hypnosis portrays a king trapped in a perpetual trance, his gaze fixed on a void that seems to possess him. With his shirt open, he reveals a tattoo on his chest: a dagger-labyrinth that pierces and intertwines in an endless cycle. This symbol is both a wound and a map, suggesting that power not only wounds but also confuses, trapping its bearer in an endless struggle with himself. Is the king hypnotized by the world or by the complexity of his own burden?
