Segmented portrait of Frida, with her image divided into strips that are slightly staggered. Each strip reveals part of her face and upper body against a background of flowers. The whole is reminiscent of a collage where each part contributes to a complete image, but also tells its own story.
Frida wears traditional or ceremonial clothing and jewellery, and her gaze is intense and penetrating. The flowers in her hair and background are lush and rich in colour, providing a vivid contrast to her stern expression. The artistic technique raises questions about identity and perception, and the way we sometimes see only fragments of the whole.
This style of portraiture, with its strong contrasts and layering, creates an intriguing tension between the realistically painted woman and the abstract composition of the whole. It invites the viewer both to consider the pieces individually and to merge them into a coherent image.
