Ink printing on transparent overlay on 180-gram paper, this artwork is called Resilience – Contemporary Masks N. 1, one of Riccardo Lopez’s early works from his Contemporary Masks series. The painting powerfully portrays a child affected by the war in Sudan, invoking a deep sense of strength and perseverance despite hardship. Lopez uses bold strokes and vivid colors like orange, blue, pink, and black, alongside dripping and splashing effects, to create an intense emotional connection. The child’s face is both abstract and expressive, revealing Lopez’s evolving style that blends realism and abstraction. The artist’s signature “WHITE RABBIT” appears in the lower corner, a mark of his distinct visual identity
