About this artwork
At the time Nelson Mandela was surrounded by many people attempting to look after him. He seemed untouchable at times. This painting, created using an acrylic medium with either iron or copper powder and washed with acid, elicits a need to touch the image to see and feel if it really is rust as you can see it’s on cloth, canvas. So I encourage this, gently. You will find that some rust is transferred to your finger, Mandela has had an effect on you,…
by the same token, the acid on your finger will have an effect on the artwork.The artwork will change a little over time…. Your acid has affected Nelson Mandela

Yiull Damaso is a painter and sculptor, mostly working with oils on canvas, innovative rust techniques, and re-purposed sculptural materials, drawing from his Italian heritage and rich life experiences. His style fuses realism and surrealism, relying on direct painting rather than extensive sketching, while his unique rust-on-canvas process sets him apart. His artworks awaken reflection, urging viewers to engage with social realities, inner thoughts, and collective emotions.
