Original artwork description:

100 x 65 cm - Paper and acrylic on canvas - 2023

“Women” takes up my favorite theme of duality by putting two mirrored portraits in opposition, like playing cards.
This painting celebrates women (and all those who identify as such) in all their diversity. The two characters represented here are diametrically opposed: one is more traditional, with his bun, his headband, and attached to religion, while the other, more modern, sports short red hair, a tattoo as well as 'a septum ring.
Despite everything, both portraits are as legitimate as each other! This painting advocates all women but above all emancipation, acceptance of oneself, but also of others, detachment from norms and difference. In conclusion, I will add an unbearable mantra: be yourself!
