#30 Hero Blueprint (Perception) | Roman Longginou
Charcoal on paper
Height: 78cm. Width: 117cm.
Portrayed through a masculine lens, Hero Blueprint (Perception) depicts a collage/montage of stereotypical heroic male imagery sourced from social media. Overlaid by a transparent blueprint of glasses, this work on paper is concerned with the hollowed and constructed notions of masculine identity.
Roman Longginou’s predominate use of charcoal, coupled with an affinity for the pictorial, has formed the base of a practice interested in the prevalence of materialism and idealised notions of masculine identity. Investigating how ‘image’ informs our own sense of self-perception and its role in contemporary culture.
