In the early 1990's, Richard MacDonald created a series of works based on an African American model named Latim. Visceral in nature, the Latim Bust reveals the personality of the subject and communicates subtle emotional cues adding greater dimension to the work. Since antiquity, the portrait bust has been used to celebrate individual physical beauty and strength, and in Latim Bust, MacDonald clearly follows suit.
