About this artwork
This painting captures the image of an African woman sitting on the subway, creating an intimate and poetic scene. Her relaxed posture and peaceful expression reflect an inner harmony that protects her from the tumult of daily life. She is a symbol of resilience and strength in the face of the challenges of modern life. The magazine she holds in her hands is white, its cover without text or images. It evokes a pause, a moment of respite, where she… escapes from the distractions of the outside world and focuses on her own inner space. It is an invitation to contemplation, introspection and the search for inner peace. Her bag placed on her lap testifies to her connection with the outside world, but she remains perfectly anchored and centered within herself. It is a reminder of the balance between daily responsibilities and the need to take time for yourself, recharge your batteries and find peace.
Lylo is a self-taught painter born in 1986 in Saint Petersburg, of Congolese and Bulgarian origin. She grew up in France, where she built her pictorial language on her own — with only one year at the Bellecour school as a starting point, and the rest through practice, observation, and persistence. Her subjects are strangers, archetypes — the angel, the father and child, the woman on the subway, the man who looks up. Figures that everyone has already passed by without really looking. Lylo looks at them. Her technique is inverted: she paints light rather than shadows, working white over black to bring forth faces. The Black figure is not a political subject for her—it is something older, more internal. A mystical presence she seeks in each canvas, somewhere between her heritages.
