This striking composition features a central abstract figure outlined in deep purple, combining mechanical and anatomical motifs with bold blocks of red, yellow, and pink. Key text elements—“MOTOR AREA,” “GEM SPA,” and “TAR ASPHALT”—are integrated into the piece, evoking industrial and urban themes. The figure’s head, divided into vibrant yellow and red sections, is punctuated by a mask-like black form over the eyes and skeletal teeth, characteristic of neo-expressionist symbolism referencing identity and raw human experience. Arrows and wheel-like shapes suggest movement and directionality, while the jagged black marks above the head add dynamic energy. The palette is primarily cool blue with contrasting warm accents, and the painting employs primitive figurative forms, layered text, and symbolic imagery. This work reflects Basquiat’s engagement with urban life, physicality, and the interplay between machine and body. This is contemporary decorative artwork inspired by 1980s neo-expressionist aesthetics and street art culture. Ideal for collectors interested in raw, urban narratives and bold, symbolic imagery. Excellent condition throughout. Ready to frame or hang.
