Detailed description
Picture "Back" (2021)
This drawing captures a tayuu geisha from behind, emphasizing the elegance of traditional Japanese dress and the intricate beauty of hair accessories and kimono roses. Using a sophisticated chiaroscuro technique, the artist skillfully contrasts the dark background with the silhouette of the figure and the delicately illuminated details. The kimono, which is lost in the shadows, symbolizes the transience of beauty. This artwork stands as a profound reflection on the passage of time and the ephemeral qualities of grace, crafted with a depth that invites contemplation of the play between light and shadow. It is a testament to the artist's ability to convey profound cultural narratives through the nuanced use of charcoal and pastel.
