One Of These Days (2022)Acrylic painting
by Emmanuel Akolo
£1,859.23
Original artwork description
The work "One of These Days" is a compelling portrait that examines the heavy weight of collective identity and communal history. The subject, crowned with a vibrant yellow sun hat, presents a gaze that is both defiant and weary, suggesting a long journey toward an anticipated future. The background and her clothing are visibly marked by countless white handprints, representing the indelible and constant imprint of others on her personal space and spirit.
This painting speaks to the pressure of bearing not just one's own history, but the physical and emotional marks left by community and expectation. The solitary flower tucked into her hat provides a small, hopeful note of personal beauty and eventual triumph. "One of These Days" is an affirmation of resilience, patiently waiting for the moment when the weight of the past finally lifts.
