Tutum Hildegarde Handsaeme · 2019
Original work · signed by the artist · certificate of authenticity · shipped from her studio in Belgium
Tutum captures the protective strength of an intimate embrace, rendered through Hildegarde Handsaeme’s signature minimalist and geometric style. The intertwined figures, drawn with flowing, unbroken lines, radiate a sense of safety and closeness, embodying both vulnerability and quiet resilience.
The composition balances abstract geometry with organic form, as planes of deep green, muted red, and serene blue intersect to frame the figures. The juxtaposition of sharp-edged blocks and soft human contours creates visual tension while maintaining harmony, highlighting the duality of strength and tenderness.
Tutum goes beyond mere figuration, becoming a symbolic exploration of protection, emotional intimacy, and the timeless human need for connection — key elements that define Handsaeme’s artistic voice.
