About "Subdued Self Portrait with Black Background - Authentic and Pure Art"

by Elianne van Turennout

About the artwork

This self-portrait, number 14 in the "A Year of Self-Portraits" series, is a striking contrast to the earlier images in the series. Where other pictures exude exuberance and colour, this portrait opts for a subdued and sober aesthetic. With a minimalist setting and a black background, devoid of make-up, an atmosphere of pure simplicity is created.

Choosing this hushed atmosphere invites introspection and emphasises the essence of the self-portrait as an art form. By renouncing trappings and frills, this portrait focuses attention on the inner world of the person portrayed. The face becomes a blank canvas on which the smallest nuances of expression and emotion become visible.

The black background symbolises a void in which the personal experience can manifest itself without distraction. It is a space for contemplation, in which the viewer is invited to explore the subtle nuances of the human mind. This simplicity and depth make the portrait particularly powerful and moving.

The absence of make-up contributes to a sense of authenticity and sincerity. The face shows itself in its purest and most natural state, without masks or facades. This self-portrait offers an intimate encounter with the person portrayed, revealing the true essence behind the outward display.
