The Hermit explores the need to step away from the noise of the outside world in order to reconnect with what is truly our own.
The work reflects on solitude not as isolation, but as a conscious space for introspection — a moment in which external expectations become quieter and we are left to confront our own thoughts, memories, and desires. It is within this distance from the world that a different kind of clarity can emerge.
The presence of the toy introduces a tension between the adult self and the instinctive, curious essence that remains beneath it. Rather than looking backwards with nostalgia, the work considers childhood as a source of something still present: an inner voice that can become difficult to hear as we grow older.
The work also plays with the archetype of The Hermit from the tarot Major Arcana, traditionally associated with introspection, solitude, and the search for inner wisdom. Here, the archetype becomes a lens for a more personal exploration of what happens when we turn away from the world long enough to listen to ourselves.
Available as a framed original and limited edition fine art prints.
