‘Green Match 1949’
Sept. 2024

This captivating work of art is a modern collage that juxtaposes visual elements to produce a powerful impact. It features a woman’s back, proudly showing off her flexed arm as a sign of strength, symbolising emancipation and self-confidence. The cut is made with meticulous precision, emphasising the natural curves of the body and the worked musculature of her arm. The background is dominated by bright colours, including a bold pink, which contrasts strikingly with the woman’s skin tone. In addition, the collage includes a mention of the famous magazine “Paris Match”, cleverly integrated into the top of the work, on the left, adding a cultural and historical dimension to the composition. This juxtaposition of an iconic image of female strength with a recognised magazine title evokes themes of social relevance and discourse about the representation of women in the media. The interplay between the classicism of the woman’s image and the modernity of the collage creates visual and conceptual depth, making the work both aesthetically pleasing and reflective. The innovative use of cutting and layering shows the technical skill of the artist, engaging the viewer to look closer and reflect on the messages conveyed. This work is notable for its ability to fuse visual art with implicit social critique, bridging past and present in an eloquent and compelling manner.
