Description from the seller
ROSSO F
Artist: Nush Menna
Title: Rosso F
Year: 2026
Technique: Oil on canvas
Dimensions: 40 × 32 cm
Original and unique artwork
Provenance: directly from the artist's studio
Certificate of authenticity: included
Finish: protective final varnish
Critical note
Rosso F is a portrait built on the meeting of two forces: the female figure and the contemporary myth of speed.
Red dominates the composition. It is not simply the color of a uniform: it becomes energy, character, desire, competition. A color instantly recognizable, belonging to the imagery of Italian car racing, and which, in the painting, is taken away from the machine to be carried onto the body.
At the center there is not the automobile. There is a woman.
The frontal, almost immobile gaze creates a contrast with everything that red suggests: movement, acceleration, noise, power. The figure does not run. She is still. And precisely because of this she seems to contain within herself all the energy of the race.
The turquoise background interrupts the dominant temperature of the composition and makes even clearer the relationship between the face, the hair, and the intense red of the dress. The bright greens of the eyes become an additional focal point of chromatic tension and inevitably guide the viewer's gaze toward the face.
The symbols tied to the world of competition enter the painting as fragments of the collective imagination: marks of speed, prestige, desire, and contemporary popular culture.
Nush Menna thus builds a portrait in which glamour, Figurative painting, and pop culture coexist without losing the truly pictorial dimension of the work.
The texture of the canvas, the brushstrokes, overlays and color variations remain visible and bear witness to the manual process through which the image was built.
Rosso F speaks of speed without representing motion.
The machine does not appear.
What remains is the energy.
Work and provenance
Original hand-painted work by Nush Menna in 2026 and coming directly from the artist's studio.

Shipping and sustainability
Shipping will be prepared directly in the artist's studio with particular attention to protecting the work during transport.

Seller's Story
My painting is born from the desire to explore the human being in contemporary time, between identity, symbols, and inner transformations. I do not simply paint what I see, but what I perceive behind the image: emotions, fragility, tensions, and contradictions that belong to our era.
My work develops through a layered and slow oil technique, where every detail has a meaning and every element contributes to the narrative of the piece. The figures I paint do not represent merely individuals, but universal conditions: vulnerability, strength, loneliness, and the longing for connection.
For me painting is an act of research and authenticity, a way to restore depth in a world dominated by speed and superficial image. Through color, light, and composition I seek to create works capable of maintaining a living relationship with those who observe them over time.
My works are present in international private collections and are mainly created in oil on canvas, with a constant production and an artistic research in continual evolution.
