About "Behind the smile"

by Imperfecto

About the artwork

This painting is a vibrant and abstract composition centred on geometric shapes. It portrays a face composed of sharp triangles, bright circles and rectangles, evoking a sense of alienation. The eyes, represented by triangles with blue highlights, are skewed, contributing to a sense of disorientation or distortion. The bright red circles are the cheeks, while a prominent oval-shaped mouth is also rendered in red.

The background consists of chaotic layers of colour and lines, with pink, yellow and blue intermingling in a whimsical manner. This creates a playful but disturbed atmosphere. The figure's hat is also graphically rendered, with a tight pattern of blue squares, contrasting with the loose and expressive lines of the rest of the work.

The repeated text "smile" on the figure's collar adds another layer to the painting, possibly suggesting that the smile is forced or unreal, given the whimsical and unusual shape of the face. This work seems to balance playfulness with an underlying, perhaps critical message about emotional expression.
