About "What Eyes Don't Say"

by Arjen Roos

About the artwork

This work, part of the Olafique series, captures the unspoken tension between mother and daughter in a refined and stylised composition. The mother, with a critical and piercing gaze, seems to express silent disapproval without words, while the daughter looks away, averted from judgement, in a pose that appears at once vulnerable and determined.

The soft lighting emphasises the contours of the characters and creates an intimate atmosphere where emotions simmer beneath the surface. The use of colour - rich in deep tones and subtle shades - enhances the drama and fits seamlessly with the narrative power that characterises Erwin Olaf's style.

The work plays with abstraction and high stylisation, merging geometric shapes and human lines. This combination gives the artwork a timeless quality, while the underlying emotion of recognisable human relationships - tension, expectation and a search for understanding - feels universal.

With Olafique: What Eyes Don't Say, I have tried to find the balance between abstraction and narrative, while doing full justice to the aesthetics of the Olafique series. The result is a powerful and layered work that makes not only a visual, but also an emotional impact.
