Original artwork description
Zakhar Shevchuk's "Smoke Break" is an exemplar of modern portraiture, where the essence of the subject is captured through innovative techniques that push the boundaries of traditional representation. In this expressive work, Shevchuk masterfully navigates the precipice between recognizable portraiture and avant-garde abstraction. This painting, while now residing in a private collection, exemplifies Shevchuk’s openness to the commissioned pursuit of similar transformative works.
Within "Smoke Break," the viewer encounters a visage distilled to its emotional core, with a nod to the dynamic fragmentation of early 20th-century futurism. The representation of cigarette smoke offers a lively contrast to the otherwise static nature of portraiture, infusing the canvas with a sense of fleeting movement and ephemeral grace. The color palette, rich with cool and warm tones, dances across the canvas, further accentuating the transient moment captured by Shevchuk.
