PRECIOUS LIFE

PRECIOUS LIFE is a series of portraits ,inspired by the work of photographer S.Stein.

The  Artist wants to "spend time" with these faces of homeless woman, whom mostly reside on Skid Row in L.A.

​

Living many years in San Diego,Southern California ,it was shocking to witness  the amount of people, having to live on the streets.

​

Instead of looking away, like most folk do, the artist wants to look at the hidden beauty, transport emotions, finally "humanise" them again .

Complex stories and faces, riddled with drug abuse and mental illness, personal traumas ,but nonetheless beautiful in their own way.

At times glowing, at times saddened, but always precious.

​

All drawings are set in silver or gold leaf.
