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.
