Description
Fans of the great Irish novelist James Joyce will probably recognize immediately the allusion of this piece's title to the author's classic novel: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. They would be right about that particular influence. The work itself, however, is actually an homage to the multidimensional visual narratives created by the American artists Luther E. Vann and Romare Beardon. It is unveiled at this time as part of observations commemorating the 10th anniversary of the publication of the art and poetry book, Elemental, The Power of Illuminated Love; and the 100th anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance.
The most accurate description of the medium employed might be mixed media combined with digital media. The process of composition took 10 years (2008-2018). It included the construction of an original physical collage, original photography, and the creation of specific digital elements.
