Mentawaï woman

Expressionist portrait made with acrylic and spray paint. From the photo "In your eyes 11" by Marion Staderoli. In the jungle of the island of Siberut, in Indonesia, lives the tribe of Mentawais or tribe of "Flower men" Face to face with this flowery smoker with a mischievous, almost sly air. She stares at us with class. This portrait is part of the series of ethnic portraits with which I try to open consciousness to these others, foreigners, living outside modern society, as close as possible to nature and spirituality. Here I wanted to stay in a color range of reds and pinks by adding greenish blues and blues to contrast and bring out the reds. All enhanced with pure whites.
