"The Soul" is a contemplative exploration of inner life and spiritual essence, expressed through Hildegarde Handsaeme’s minimalist figurative painting style. The central face, rendered in fluid, unbroken contours, appears within a circular frame — a symbolic portal to the unseen self. Surrounding geometric patterns and abstracted forms evoke the layered and multifaceted nature of the human spirit.

The composition is brought to life with bold planes of color — deep navy, bright red, vivid green, golden yellow, and soft blue — creating a harmonious balance between structure and organic form. This interplay mirrors the dialogue between the physical and spiritual realms, a hallmark of Handsaeme’s ability to merge abstraction with profound symbolic storytelling.

More than an image, The Soul invites viewers to reflect on identity, purpose, and the quiet power of introspection. It is an evocative piece for collectors who appreciate art that bridges visual purity with emotional and spiritual depth.
