In this painting, two human forms emerge, their closeness and shared color palette suggesting connection. Yet, the figures are fragmented and incomplete, evoking a sense of tension and ambiguity despite the reassuring title. The disjointed shapes leave us wondering—where are the heads, the feet, and who is truly present for whom? This uncertainty challenges the viewer to question the nature of the relationship.

The intense blue hues clash with delicate rosé tones, heightening the emotional contrast, while charcoal sketches and writings weave a further layer of complexity into the work. The phrase referenced in the title, often spoken without real understanding, becomes a hollow formula when people fail to truly listen to one another. This piece reflects that disconnect, capturing both the vulnerability and the distance in human interactions.

Executed in oil paints and charcoal on raw hemp canvas, the piece exudes a raw, visceral energy, amplifying the tension between connection and disconnection, order and chaos.
