Lines of Charcoal the Charismatic

On view at Rise Art is a new body of work from South African artist Nelson Makamo.  Continues his charismatic portraits rendered in lively,  gestural lines of charcoal.  Whether on paper or canvas,  the mixed-media pieces depict children and teens,  and the artist’s quick,  sometimes chaotic markings echo.  The unfiltered immediacy of the sitters’ cheerful and contemplative emotions—prior to each portrait,  he spends time learning.  About his subjects’ lives,  their joys,  and worries,  a practice he finds essential for capturing such candid,  honest expressions.

Makamo’s latest pieces diverge slightly from his previous works by exploring themes of togetherness.  Whereas often focuses on fragmented portrayals of solitary figures,  artist hones in on community in this new body of work.  Painting two children grasping hands or in the case of “Mission Possible,”  a group of friends huddled in a tight cluster.

Material as Narrative — Editor’s Note

Materials remember what architecture tries to forget. 在這些作品裡,材料不是被覆蓋,而是被閱讀。石材的裂紋、灰泥的層次、木構的勞動痕跡構成了一種持續書寫的語言。Material as Narrative 關注那些讓建築保持可讀性的空間——時間沒有被抹除,而是被允許停留。這些建築不是追求完美的物件,而是承載生活、修補與記憶的結構,提醒我們空間真正的價值來自其被使用、被觸摸、被歲月雕刻的過程。 Materials are never neutral. In these projects, concrete carries memory, bamboo becomes structure, wood
