In To Exist Without Excuses, Modou Guèye portrays a standing figure in a richly patterned robe, holding an object close to the body while facing sideways. Working with oil, acrylic and oil pastels on canvas, the artist gives form to self-possession, autonomy and the refusal to justify one’s presence. The work will appeal to collectors seeking contemporary figuration with bold color, cultural memory and quiet psychological strength.
