INanto’s debut series unfolds in two movements: Beneath the Surface and Ashes & Bloom; tracing the full cycle of concealment and renewal. Together, they chart the inward and outward tides of transformation: what happens when the self retreats to survive, and what follows when it dares to re—emerge. The work is rooted in memory and the quiet architecture of resilience a meditation on how pain, silence, and time can turn loss into becoming.

OIL ON CANVAS

Beneath The Surface marks the first movement: the phase before eruption, when protection remains essential. Figures withdraw, faces blur, and identity drifts toward abstraction. This is not disappearance but preservation, a necessary stillness that shelters what is still forming. The paintings inhabit that fragile threshold where inner life grows dense in the dark, waiting for light.
