Cycle de vie - Acrylic Skull Painting 3 - (2023) by Nelson Neves

2023

About the Item

This acrylic painting is a bold and dynamic fusion of life and mortality, featuring a striking skull surrounded by vibrant flowers. The energetic brushstrokes and dripping paint create a sense of movement, blurring the lines between decay and renewal. Bright, contrasting colors add intensity, while the floral elements introduce a sense of beauty and transformation. The interplay of abstraction and figurative detail reflects themes of impermanence, vibrancy, and the cyclical nature of life. Nelson Neves, a Luxembourg-based contemporary painter born in Cape Verde in 1973, blends figurative and abstract styles with vivid, contrasting colors. His work is deeply inspired by African culture, particularly Cape Verde, while also reflecting influences from Luxembourg, where he has lived since childhood. “Through culture, let's share together values ​​such as tolerance, joy, respect, empathy and diversity and build cultural bridges.”
