Description
This powerful image depicts a portrait of a young Black man rendered in black and white, using charcoal and acrylic mediums.
Adding a dynamic element to the composition, a large bird, possibly an eagle or hawk, is perched atop his head. The bird is depicted in mid-movement, with its wings unfurled and draped over the man's head, suggesting a protective or symbolic presence.
The detailed rendering of the feathers contrasts with the smooth textures of the man's skin, creating a textural depth that enhances the overall visual impact of the piece. "Metáfora" explores themes of freedom and strength.
Presentation
Ritchelly Oliveira, visual artist, began his work in 2012, shortly after enrolling in visual arts at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), he found in the human figure a space to present his speech about what he understands most profoundly present in affective relationships. He talks about what he suspects to be love and, believing it to be a universal feeling. It proposes what is common to men, even knowing that this love brings something that is also individual and particular.
Believing that affective relationships are built from the individual and how their surroundings interfere with them, we try to rescue here the possibility of constructing discourses about love, especially black love. The importance of reflecting together on issues such as sexuality, emotional responsibility and colorism are necessary canons in this invitation to embrace the dangerous and exclusionary ideals of romantic love that circulate in our environments.
