100 x 80 cm painting with 2 mm glass, matte white passepartout, and black wooden frame. Roller, brush, acrylic, and spray paint. Metal hanging bracket. Unique piece.
This painting depicts a stylized and abstract face, rendered in a strictly monochromatic black and white palette. The base is made with a roller, creating a wide, diffuse outline with irregular textures that delineate the shape of the head and hair. Over this base, the facial features are defined with strokes of more concentrated black acrylic and white lines applied in a synthetic and gestural manner.
The eyes are barely hinted at with dark, closed arches, conveying serenity or introspection. The nose and mouth are constructed with a few strong lines, while the strategically placed white brushstrokes (on the forehead, cheeks, and lips) function as light contrasts or symbolic, almost ritualistic marks.
The whole creates a minimalist yet expressive feel, merging the graphic with the pictorial. The use of white on black not only adds volume and rhythm but also gives it a mysterious and ceremonial air, like a mask or a spiritual portrait.
