Let Us Worship Someone - Red Faces (2018) Original Acrylic Painting by Bohdan Svyrydov

Let Us Worship Someone - Red Faces is a large red acrylic painting on canvas, created with bold white line drawing over an intense red background. This contemporary figurative artwork combines repeated faces, eyes, crowns, mask-like heads, symbolic figures and graphic white marks, making it a powerful statement piece for a modern living room, hallway, office, studio, loft interior or creative workspace.

The painting is built as a dense crowd of faces and signs. White lines move across the red surface, forming simplified heads, watchful eyes, long noses, mouths, crowns, repeated figures and small coded symbols. The composition feels like a ritual, a collective gathering or a wall of voices looking back at the viewer.

This is not a traditional portrait. The figures are stylised, symbolic and repeated almost like icons or signs. The title adds a sense of irony and tension: the work suggests the human need to follow, admire, fear or worship someone. The many faces create the feeling of a crowd, but also of one repeated image of authority, belief or desire.

The strong red and white palette gives the painting immediate visual impact. From a distance it reads as a bold graphic statement; up close, the surface becomes full of small expressions, crowns, faces and hidden details. The work sits between figurative painting, symbolic drawing, street-art inspired mark-making, graphic art and contemporary expression.

This one-of-a-kind large acrylic painting works well as a striking contemporary artwork above a sofa, in a hallway, office, studio, gallery wall, loft space or modern interior with strong contrast. Sold unframed.
