ABOUT THE ARTWORK

'My Brazil' painting explores the relationship and love between two men from different backgrounds and cultures. The artist takes inspiration from people living in her neighbourhood. A young gay couple, Brazil-born Renato and a British man, Alex, are both creatives residing in London. They share an intimate moment and a conversation with Pilarczyk about their relationship and the past. Renato, who grew up in Brazil, shared with the artist his memories of a beautiful but dangerous country where he didn't feel safe as a young gay man. He still misses his family house, which has a yard full of trees and colourful toucans. Joanna Pilarczyk captures a duo portrait of her friends showing their love and trust for each other through the vibrancy of her colours and open, relaxed composition. The painting was shortlisted for the Herbert Smith Freehills Portrait Award 2024 at the National Portrait Gallery and longlisted for the Jackson’s Art Prize in 2024. It also won the Boynes Monthly Art Award and was a finalist in the FIKVA International Figurative Painters Award in 2023.
