Hernan Bas — Starstruck
Hernan Bas

Starstruck

A solitary figure gazes upward into a darkened, atmospheric sky, rendered in Bas's signature blend of gothic introspection and adolescent mystery. The water-based oil on paper lends the work a luminous, almost translucent quality, with moody, layered tones evoking a sense of wonder tinged with unease. Bas captures a private moment of celestial contemplation, drawing on themes of isolation, longing, and the uncanny that define his broader practice.
