This untitled drawing was made by Vasile Kazar, at an unknown date, using ink on paper. What we see here is a jumble of fragmented figures, each rendered with a nervous energy that speaks to a deeper unease. Note the faces, the distorted eyes, and the way they seem to overlap and merge. This reminds me of ancient masks, where the boundaries between the human and the divine become blurred. Think of the tragic masks of Greek theatre, embodying intense emotional states—fear, grief, ecstasy. Here too, Kazar seems to tap into that primordial wellspring of human emotion. The faces themselves, floating in isolation, recall the disembodied heads found in medieval art, symbols of martyrdom or spiritual transcendence. Yet, there is a sense of alienation here, a disconnect that speaks to the anxieties of modernity. What surfaces here is a powerful reminder of how deeply rooted and intrinsically tied to our psyche this enduring symbol is.
