Pale Male (II)
Price: 52,000 DKK
Water Colour
30 x 34.5 cm.
Pale Male (II) (2025) is a watercolor in which Michael Kvium presents a frontal male figure with a direct yet subdued gaze. Set against a deep blue background, the figure appears enveloped by the surrounding space, reinforcing a sense of isolation and quiet intensity.
The transparent layers of watercolor give the skin a pale, porous quality, rendering the body both physically present and psychologically distant. The restrained gesture and simplified facial features focus attention on the gaze and the weight of the figure’s presence.
The work explores exposure, vulnerability, and the act of being seen, aligning closely with Kvium’s ongoing investigation of fragile, psychologically charged human figures.
This artwork is presented here as part of a small selection. Please reach out to us for access to a showroom with all available artworks.
