Description of the work
Description of the work
The iconography of motherhood is closely linked to the subject of the Madonna and Child. It is probably one of the most popular iconographies in the history of both Western and Eastern art. The Madonna and Child appears since the dawn of medieval painting and remained a constant subject as long as religious themes dominated artistic production (that is, until the 19th century, when themes inspired by everyday life began to be introduced). It is quite common for contemporary artists to treat the iconography of motherhood without directly linking it to the Christian religion.
As we can see in this work, the artist Shoda uses a figurative yet vigorously synthetic language. The image is reduced to a simple, bold line that, with great personality, delineates the subject's form in an expressive and vibrant way.
A. Shoda, the artist who created this work, bases his style on a figurative language while looking, however, at a sign-based expressionism of an archaic flavour.
