In this painting by Gaspard de Gouges in the center of the painting sits a black person with an Afro haircut and an eye patch. The model is Naomi Campbell posing for a fashion photographer. To his left stands a bare-chested man wearing sportswear and a pillowcase on his head. At the carnival in Rio while chatting with Brazilian friends, I learned that before carnival became an industry, young people from the favelas made themselves unrecognizable by using an old pillowcase. Obviously this improvised hood also refers to the Ku-Klux -Klan. In 2005 the southern United States, the cradle of slavery and segregation, was hit by Hurricane Katrina, this event marked me. So I mixed racism, black icon, tropical festival and contained violence. On the blue table in the foreground a giant pineapple hides the crotch of the hooded character, a knife is planted on the table. A threat hovers, enhanced by the deformed red hand of the third character, a tattooed colossus, from behind, which creates a background for the central character.
