Witness

HSIN YEN-TSEN

Silver Prize

A strikingly symbolic composition that compresses the brutality of war into a confined yet emotionally expansive visual narrative.

Project description

This work effectively uses the keyhole motif to frame the viewer as a witness to the hidden realities of war, creating strong psychological tension. The layered narrative—from the mother and child to the young soldier and ruined landscape—builds a clear and emotional progression, balancing loss with fragile hope. The composition is compelling, though a slightly stronger focal hierarchy could enhance immediate visual impact.
