This picture is a portrait of famous male model Augusta Alexander, that I would call "the tear". I like its ambiguity, because it is one of the most handsome men, very active and agile, in a moment of reflection, sadness, crying.
The collage is made of Paper, Spray Paint, Epoxy Resin and paint on canvas. The silver spray paint reflects the light of the room, from very shadowy and melancholy to very bright and sparkling. So it changes with the room, adapts to the day and night light.
Andy Warhol was famous for his replications but we live in a new age, replicating became different and the faces, models, objects need an update. This is a study, combining Andy Warhol's idea with a new face: Augusta Alexander.
I am very inspired by the contradictions of this portrait. I use it in most of my oeuvres and always find new ways of looking at it, it inspires me daily. I would recommend to combine it with Augusta Renaissance I.
IMPORTANT: None of my artwork is perfect, they are organic, there are drops of paint, tears in the paper, waves, glue residues. They are original!
