Self-portrait with patterns, 2018-19

About

This self-portrait is represented was made in two stages. At first I painted myeslf through a mirror and I included afterwards the motifs of the background. which allude to the print of an Arabic carpet. The idea of mixing personal portraiture with a decorative background arises from the impulse to express one's character within a modernist style. The colors show the vivacity of the palette, maintaining the chromatic harmonies in contrast with before the subjective description of the being. There is a nostalgic gaze and a pervasive concern in the here and now. individual freedom is embodied, full of existential concerns in the face of a current scene.
