Black situates figures in sparsely delineated surroundings or isolates
them, seated in pieces of furniture without further relation to the
space. The sketched architectonic structures are as schematic as
the figure is elaborated, especially the head, which is, to the
neglect of other
details, subject to a concentration of sculptured paint in the forming
of facial features. There is a tension between the voided areas of
the paintings, the introversion of the faces and the absence of a
narrative on the one hand and the agitated, haptic working of the
paint on the other. This tension superimposes itself on the motif.
