About this artwork
Growing up as a Black woman in rural France, Adele The Princess rarely saw herself reflected in the classical artworks she admired. This painting reclaims that absence by placing Black figures at the center of a composition inspired by The Creation of Adam, reinterpreted through a contemporary and deeply personal lens.
By preserving the harmony and structure of the original while transforming its representation, the work challenges historical exclusion… and introduces a new narrative of visibility, identity, and belonging within classical art. The presence of Black bodies in this context becomes both a statement and a restoration—an affirmation of place within art history.
This piece forms part of a broader vision: to build a personal “Louvre,” a curated body of work where heritage, representation, and excellence converge. Through this practice, Adele The Princess creates artworks that not only reference the past, but actively reshape it.

“In my world, only my rules apply. I am my vision, and what suits me best.”
The work of Adele the Princess is not defined by traditional mastery. She believes that recreating so-called “masterpieces” is something anyone can do. She is not concerned with perfect execution—what matters is the evocation, the feeling behind each piece. For her, it’s about proving that everyone can try, experiment, and create something meaningful.
She creates when she feels the need; her process is rooted in spontaneity. She revisits masterpieces by focusing exclusively on Black figures, reshaping a narrative that has often excluded people like her from classical art. She uses gold for its elegance and the way it enhances the richness of Black skin tones.
Everything is guided by personal preference rather than academic rules. She doesn’t worry about whether her work resonates with everyone. It is her world, her rules, her vision.
