Elizabeth Colomba
is a figurative painter who adapts the technical approach and themes (including the feminine sacred, mythology, history, and allegory) of traditional Western portraiture in order to interrupt stereotypical representation of the black body. By mixing classical painting with inherently black signifiers, including references to her own Caribbean heritage, The Artist Elizabeth Colomba has developed a visual language to reconfigure the canon to include black subjectivity and its attendant narratives.
