"DREAMS" II (2021) - Colorful Painting

Neves, Nelson

This acrylic painting by Nelson Neves is an energetic and vibrant composition that combines figurative and abstract elements. It features smiling flowers, adding a playful, surreal touch to the piece and two stylized bird-like figures, depicted with exaggerated features such as large, expressive eyes and sharp, angular beaks. The background is an explosion of bold colors interwoven with jagged lines, splashes, and brushstrokes, creating a dynamic sense of movement.

This painting reflects Neves’ signature style, influenced by African and European cultural elements. The painting embodies themes of diversity, energy, and connection, aligning with Neves’ artistic vision of promoting cultural values like tolerance, joy, and empathy through his art.
