GROTESQUE
Oil on board | 91×124cm | 2024
Original oil painting by Santi Pina
Grotesque depicts the nude back of a woman, standing against a stark black background. Her posture is quiet yet intense, slightly turned, she gazes over her shoulder with an ambiguous expression that invites and confronts at once.
The title is deliberately provocative: “grotesque” not in the traditional sense of distortion, but as a challenge to conventional ideals of beauty and shame. The figure is rendered with delicate detail: flesh, shadows, subtle curves, without filters or idealizations. The tension lies in the viewer’s gaze: why does raw intimacy disturb us more than perfection?
This painting questions the line between vulnerability and power, exposure and control. It is a confrontation with the body as it is; unadorned, unapologetic, and whole.
