About this artwork
A black man's face is supported by large, strong hands. His gaze is veiled with melancholy and he looks off camera, lost in his thoughts. Nostalgia is the theme of this expressive portrait: nostalgia for one's homeland, nostalgia for one's people, language, family or loved ones.
The pictorial technique and the chromatic choice refer to expressionism for the decisive and instinctive sign of the contours and lines, but also for the anti-naturalistic… color combinations. The black man's complexion and the reflections of the light are in fact the starting point for combining green, bright yellow, turquoise, blue, red and brown: in this way the strength of the color sublimates the dramatic theme. The picture is completed with a tropical wood frame which, with its natural veins, harmonizes with the colors of the composition.
