David Hilliard — The Lone Wolf from the Dad series

The Lone Wolf from the Dad series

A quiet tension permeates this chromogenic diptych by David Hilliard, in which the panoramic format stretches domestic or natural space into a cinematic meditation on solitude and masculinity. The flush-mounted panels work together to create a seamless yet psychologically layered narrative, characteristic of Hilliard's deeply personal exploration of fathers, sons, and the emotional distances between them. The image evokes a sense of introspection and quiet longing, inviting the viewer to contemplate the complex inner life of the solitary male figure at its center.

Medium
Chromogenic diptych, flush-mounted.
