About The Artwork

The figure represented in this work is a male, yet stylized, revealing some gender ambiguity. He exhibits himself as a work of art, decorated with various military honors, giving expression to the condition and status of this figure: a high ranking military figure or a king, such as a contemporary Louis XIV. He gazes onto the construction of a female body, formed by various types of identities. Behind him lay different fragments of male faces; expressions; bodies. The main theme revolves around the relationship between power and sexuality. It is also present the concept of voyeurism - the inclusion of different binoculars, creating an emphasis on a hidden desire (seeing without being seen); from the distance, safely, without commitment. This captures our social and personal reality.

Paulo Silva is an artist and illustrator who has lived in Portugal for the last sixteen years. Previously, he lived and worked in the United Kingdom (for fourteen years). These works are the result of many years of study into visual arts and aesthetics; they're his personal work, denominated as painting with collage - they involve a meticulous process of selection and composition, building to an effect, similar to figurative oil painting.
