The artwork titled “Shadow Head Portrait Gold, 2004” is an acrylic piece by the artist Richard Hambleton, created in 2004. It belongs to the Conceptual Art and Street Art movements, embodying the experimental and urban essence of both styles.
The artwork portrays a human head in profile, using a bold application of gold acrylic paint. The figure appears shadow-like, with the contours of the head and shoulders defined in a somewhat abstract manner, leaving room for interpretation. The gold on white background creates a striking contrast, enhancing the prominence of the head and rendering an impactful visual statement. Framed with a simple yet elegant gold frame, the piece exudes a modern yet timeless aura, inviting viewers to explore the depth and implications of its representation.
