Description from the seller
Freedom
Oil on canvas, 100 × 70 cm
In Freedom, freedom is not an abstract concept. It has a body, a direct gaze, a skin that tells its own time.
This young woman doesn’t pose: she advances. She remains still only for an instant, as if the painting had intercepted her during a journey that continues beyond the frame. Behind her, the stormy sea and a sunset afire do not serve as a backdrop, but as an emotional echo: nature mirrors the inner urgency of a generation that does not ask for permission to exist.
The motorcycle with the skull, the pop symbols, the butterflies, the smile, the peace sign, the unicorn, the grotesque face tattooed on the thigh: each element is a visual fragment of twenty-first-century culture. They are not decorations. They are contemporary hieroglyphs. Language carved on the skin of those who grew up among social media, quiet revolutions, political disillusionment, a need for identity, and a fierce longing for authenticity.
The tattoo on the chest, centered and almost ritual, engages with the word Freedom on the shirt: freedom here is not blind rebellion, but a declaration of belonging to oneself.
The female figure thus becomes the archetype of the contemporary “urban tribe”: young people who bear on their bodies the marks of their own time, just as ancient populations bore war paint. The difference is that today the battle is existential, cultural, and identitarian.
The work blends pop aesthetics, symbolic realism, and narrative tension. It is a powerful generational portrait, where beauty coexists with irony, strength with vulnerability, myth with the present.
Freedom doesn't tell a girl.
Tell of an era that has decided to write itself on its skin.
Final protective coating
Certificate of authenticity
To avoid further polluting the world and contribute to an ecological choice, I will use recycled cardboard. The small step towards a clean world starts with each individual. A responsible choice for everyone.
You can see the video that details the painting and the various stages of creation on my Instagram profile nush_artwork, or on my website, https://nushart.com.
Includes a certificate of authenticity and is shipped with careful packaging in a tube.
Simple frame as a gift.
