"Exotic Flowers"

Artwork title: “Exotic Flowers”
Dimensions: 40 × 50 cm
Technique: Impasto acrylic and liquid gold on canvas

Short description: The work reinterprets the face of a mixed-race woman from the Art Deco period (1920s–1940s), a time when the presence of Black artists began to bring a new, vibrant, and sensual energy into high society spaces. The vividly colored, raised flowers become a metaphor for this exotic force and for the cultural emancipation characteristic of the era.
