What is striking from the outset is that this time it is not the female figure that predominates but Boris’s own portrait, executed in his signature style of thick outlines letting through the colourful urban landscape deployed before his eyes. More than his features, one recognises the artist’s hairstyle, the hat and the earing. Three out of the four portraits clearly represent him from the side, full-face and from behind. Their placing in the gallery space reflects these different vantage points.
