Homeboy was painted during the second confinement. I build toys and invented games to spend time with Novello. Day and night, hours and hours, sense of time was lost, so loud yet so quite, his movement was soundless..... I painted this series of work indoor, in darkness, to echo that "dark period" in our memories. This is the brightest one. I figure it was because of the kid. For him, everything is joyful, colorful.
