M. Nzita - Untitled

The work can be defined as a genre scene, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones. The Impressionists, in particular, favored subjects related to modern life in urban, bourgeois settings. In this painting by M. Nzita, we find a subject inspired by an exotic dimension, by ethnic and folkloristic everyday life.

This work is truly exemplary of M. Nzita's style, in which a figurative representation resolves itself into a stylistic register with strongly expressionistic overtones. This is particularly evident in this work. Indeed, we can appreciate how the entire scene was executed by exploiting the expressive potential of color. The drawn structure dissolves into a highly synthetic representation. It is therefore up to a lumpy brushstroke, dense with color and with a strong structural function, to construct the image. The painted surface transforms into a shifting mixture of dynamic chromaticism made up of warm and earthy tones, linked to the sensations derived from African influences.

The African painter M. Nzita stands out for an interesting and original artistic production in which the emotions arising from the bond with his land are transposed through an intense expressionism of color.
