Ilan Adar
Planet Echo, 2021.
Original acrylic and ink on canvas.
This artwork is signed at the lower left margin.
Framed and wall-ready.

The body of work entitled My Tribe was created entirely in the last year, and it combines images and issues that have occupied Ilan Adar over the years while creating an imaginary and fantastic world, yet familiar. At the center of the series is an imaginary tribe, a tribe of hunters that reminds us of natives from different primitive cultures. Drawing the figures with a type of ornamentation that covers the entire body is reminiscent of the Maori, the tattooed natives of New Zealand and the Polynesian Islands, but the characteristics also have features from Asia and Africa.
