My artwork, “Modern Masculinity”, is a balance between dark and light, it is a dance between femininity and masculinity and it displays a power struggle between the modern man and himself. The idea is to have bold movements juxtaposed with much more graceful and light notes throughout the painting, there are areas of soft pink trying to break through. The black signifies depression and despair and it literally seeps into other parts of the painting…
from the darker sections. This represents struggles with mental health that can bleed into positive experiences. It also simultaneously symbolises the old-fashioned rhetoric that is still washed into the minds of the youth of today and trickles down through generations. I have scratched into the wet paint on the canvas to display and to experience the fight and the fraught that is mixed up in trying to navigate the opposing views.
