David Bowie – „Changes“ Diptych by Raymond

Description & Inspiration

„Changes“ is a monumental acrylic pouring portrait of David Bowie, spread across two canvases (each 120 x 120 cm). This diptych captures Bowie’s transformative spirit, his ever-changing personas, and his role as a cultural chameleon.

With turquoise-blue hair, piercing eyes, and the vivid contrast of a hot pink jacket against a deep black background, the composition radiates energy and intensity. Subtle details – like the astronaut in the background – hint at Bowie’s cosmic influence and his timeless connection to space and imagination.

This portrait is my tribute to Bowie’s song „Changes“, an anthem for reinvention and individuality.

Technique & Materials

The artwork was created with the acrylic pouring technique, blending flowing abstraction with sharp precision. The diptych format enhances the tension and drama: Bowie’s portrait is divided yet united, a reflection of his constant reinvention. Neon tones create vibrancy, while the layered textures give the work depth and movement.

Impact & Meaning

This piece is more than a portrait – it is a visual exploration of identity and transformation. It symbolizes Bowie’s fearless approach to change and his influence as an icon who blurred the lines between music, fashion, and art.
