Declan (In Simone Rocha with Eddie) (2023) exemplifies Ball’s nuanced engagement with visibility and identity. The sitter, dressed in a Simone Rocha garment and holding a guinea pig, appears suspended in a pale, timeless space. With soft tonal transitions and meticulous attention to surface, Ball transforms the portrait into a meditation on ambiguity—between masculinity and femininity, intimacy and distance. The result is both tender and uncanny, echoing the artist’s commitment to portraying the quiet complexity of human presence.
