About the Item
Against a stark white background, the focal point of the painting is two figures centrally positioned. The first figure is a man, depicted with his eyes covered by the gentle touch of a woman's hand.
The choice of white clothing worn by both figures stands out against the blank canvas, symbolizing purity and innocence. However, juxtaposed with the obscured vision of the man, it suggests a vulnerability or blindness to certain truths or memories.
The positioning of the woman covering the man's eyes evokes themes of protection, intimacy, and trust. It hints at the complexities of relationships and the intertwining of individual experiences within them.
Through "Memory," Oliveira creates a poignant narrative that invites viewers to contemplate the intricacies of love, vulnerability, and the enduring impact of memories within the context of the black experience.

Ritchelly Oliveira, visual artist, began his work in 2012, shortly after enter visual arts at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), he found
human figure a margin to present his speech about what he
understands the deeper aspects of emotional relationships. He works about what he suspects to be love and, believing that this is a universal feeling. Believing that affective relationships are built from the individual and
as their surroundings interfere with them, he tries to rescue the possibility
to construct discourses about love, especially black love. The importance
to reflect together on issues such as sexuality, responsibility
affective and colorism are necessary canons in this invitation to fulfill the ideals
dangerous and exclusionary forms of romantic love that circulate in our environments.
