Description
This piece is a powerful fusion between classical art and contemporary street art. It features a realistic female portrait, with a strong emotional focus on the face, evoking the romanticism of 19th-century painting. The woman’s intense, melancholic gaze is partially covered by layers of spray paint, dripping, and vibrant color splashes—such as fuchsia, turquoise, orange, and electric blue.
The superimposition of techniques—detailed oil or acrylic for the face and hands, combined with spray paint and street-art-style marks—creates a visual contrast that conveys emotional tension and dynamic movement. The work suggests a duality between the eternal and the fleeting, between classical beauty and modern, almost chaotic expression. The woman’s face remains serene and enigmatic, while the rest of the composition is disrupted by more impulsive gestures reminiscent of graffiti
