Part of the artist’s series  LOST 

LOST is a visual exploration of people who exist on the edge of visibility — emotionally, socially, and spiritually. Born out of a time of rupture and uncertainty, the series reflects the silent disappearance of individuals in the midst of collective upheaval.

Each painting captures figures in transition: half-formed, partially present, or dissolving into abstract surroundings. These characters — often faceless or fading — represent those who are forgotten, ignored, or emotionally adrift. Through layered textures of oil and acrylic, Eli Nachshon gives form to absence and brings the unseen to the surface.

The series does not offer resolution, but rather invites reflection. Who are we when we are not seen? What is lost when we become invisible to others, or even to ourselves?

LOST is not only about vanishing — it’s about the quiet resistance of continuing to exist, even when no one is looking.
