From chaos, grace emerges. In this dynamic black-and-white piece, Mário Henrique captures the fleeting energy of dance through spontaneous gestures and bold splashes. The ballerina takes shape in a rush of movement — raw, unfiltered, alive. It’s not about perfection, but presence. Emotion, rhythm, and chance collide on paper, revealing beauty in its most visceral form.
Behind the Canvas
Mário Henrique is a Portuguese artist (born 1983) known for his large-scale, expressionist portraiture. A prolific portraitist, he is fascinated by the unpredictability of human behavior, from fleeting glances to the impermanence of facial expressions. His work captures these transient moments through bold, gestural techniques that embrace both intention and spontaneity.
