powerful combination of portraiture and natural symbolism. A woman's face is centrally placed, with the right half of her face replaced by a large orange flower with a dark centre. The other half of her face shows geometric and organic patterns reminiscent of tribal art, executed in subtle shades of black, beige and grey. This combination of elements emphasises the harmony between man and nature.
The flower's warm orange colour contrasts sharply with the dark background and the woman's deep skin tone, making it seem almost radiant. The use of light and shadow creates depth, while the flower stem running downwards seems to suggest a connection between her and the earth. The details in the patterned work on her skin enhance the layering of the image, and the whole has an almost spiritual feel.
The dark background enhances the drama and brings the figure and flower fully into focus. The work exudes a sense of power, mysticism and connection to the natural world, inviting the viewer to reflect on the relationship between humans, culture and nature.
