Motherhood

In this painting, I capture a moment of intimacy that brings together a matriarch, her daughter and her child. The scene, which is inspired by the universe of Lucien Freud, expresses maternal love through the choice of earth tones that recall the origin, the fusional relationship between the characters. The painting not only traces the passage of time but also describes, through its composition, a relationship of filiation where everyone clings to their offspring. But from this maternal love comes anxiety, the fear of emptiness and that of abandonment. Besides, who says that a mother's love is always serene.
