A cropped portrait of Elon Musk. The business magnate seems to be preoccupied, covering his mouth with his hand in a pensive manner. The evident brushstrokes highlight his enervated face marked by stress and is depicted in hues of lilac, a cold tone that reflects his mood, evoking a somber immobile atmosphere. His vacant gaze adds to the eerie feeling, contrasting the character’s usual arrogance and imposingness. The choice of cropping the subject reflects the artist’s interest for media and representation of celebrity, compressing the subjects into objects, a mono dimensional and material flat image.



This work is executed using oil on canvas. Milenkovic for this series of paintings employs whites in a particular manner, so the colours are gently washed away, resulting in a patina that imparts a sense of history and age to the pieces.
