About this artwork
Against a backdrop of an arid and hostile desert, an African man holds a baby close to him, his face marked with deep concern. With his head tilted towards the child, he seems to seek refuge in his fragility, as if his protection was the only thing that still mattered. His hand, tied by an invisible rope, symbolizes helplessness in the face of the situation which forces them into exile. The work immerses us in the heartbreaking reality of refugees,… forced to flee their homes to escape war, persecution or poverty. The cleverly chosen colors reinforce the artist's poignant message. Black, the color of mourning and loss, contrasts with the immaculate white of the child's clothing, a symbol of hope and innocence. The dark metallic blue here evokes the depth of his grief and the determination that drives him.
The desert, a vast expanse of ocher sand, represents the immensity of the unknown and the dangers that await the
Lauriane Itoua is a painter born in Saint Petersburg to a Bulgarian mother and a Congolese father. Her work explores the human figure, which she treats with a deliberate directness and a restrained tension.
Her compositions, often centered on isolated portraits, give the bodies a sculptural presence. The silhouettes emerge from contrasting backgrounds, where light is constructed through clear lines and precise highlights. This way of bringing forth light from the dark mass has become a recognizable signature of her work.
The figures she depicts are neither anecdotal nor decorative. They occupy the space with gravity, silence, and dignity. Through them, Lauriane Itoua explores memory, inner resistance, and the strength of multiple identities.
His work offers a direct, refined style of painting, where light does not deny shadow but reveals it.
