burningman fast, 2019

Acrylic on black paper, 70 × 100 cm (27 ½ × 39 ⅜ in). Painting by Yiğit Özen (decentralize*).

Red covers nearly the whole surface. A large frontal face occupies the left half, its brow, eyes, nose and downturned mouth drawn in thin pale lines over red, grey and violet washes. A smaller face of the same construction sits at the upper right. Between them a pale hand with four fingers points upward, above thick vertical red bars. Rows of white and pink block capitals run across the lower right, partly overpainted and only partly legible, above a horizontal pink band. Dark navy and black fill the edges, with magenta and violet vertical strokes along the top right.

The left half is taken up by a single face; horizontal scratches on its brow, its eyes half closed, its mouth drawn down. At upper right a second, half-scale, paler face.
